Interesting.. many people such as myself have the required qualifications, maybe more but do not have a degree. Any particular reason for this as a prerequisite? Just curious, not about to start a flame war..
peterg22: they hired me, and I never finished college. If you've got the chops I wouldn't sweat it :)
Would you consider employing someone from the UK and supporting there visa application?
Why has twitter been SO slow lately?
Could someone please take this job? The current team obviously has no idea how to solve twitter's scaling issues, despite saying they were working on it a week ago.
I wonder whose fault it is for those downward peaks in alexa's traffic.
My props from Frostwire.com
The magic of Twitter is def. in its API-Nature, its allowing for a lot of creativity.
Good luck finding more people, I guess you should execute an exit strategy and sell to Yahoo! or Google, in any case to Google, you've lots of users from GTalk.
Logging people's lifes and junk chatter by the minute.
I'm a fan of twitter, who would've thought.
When are you including MMS Twittering? I wonder how hard that would be, or how hard it is to even consider adding 20 more chars to each message traffic wise :)
