On March 21, 2006, Jack Dorsey opened Twitter, in a very low-key way, with two messages. The first was posted automatically and indicated that the account was being created, and the second twelve minutes later invited the rest of the workers of the fledgling social network to log in and start using it. In case you want to know more about these reports, we tell their story in the 15 Years of Twitter publication we published in March 2021, and here is the NFT story from the first report.

Its founders and subsequent managers who went through Twitter Inc. They were always clear about the reason for the social network, its nature, its identity and its scope. And yes, it’s true that it has evolved over the years (longer messages, multimedia content, new features, etc.), but always understand, always be clear about what it was, a social network, a communication tool. from the many agoras that come from the internet.

Twitter has never been a perfect service, even less so when you consider that this consideration depends on factors that vary substantially depending on each person’s preferences. However, and especially in its early days, it did boasts of being the social network with the most positive reviews (although it wasn’t the most used because the two accounts don’t always match). That started to change a few years ago (yes, surprise, I won’t say it’s Elon Musk’s fault either), but Twitter always knew what Twitter was.

Unfortunately, that has changed. Just a week ago I told you that Elon Musk wanted to make the social network a financial services platform, and as I mentioned then, entrust your money to a person who moves CPD like someone who moves a chair from one. corner to another. The next one seems like a rather bold idea to me. As we continue to process this, we find that we are not satisfied with managing our personal finances, Elon Musk also wants Twitter to become a space to find love.

As we can read on Mashable, the billionaire hinted in a leaked interview that another aspect of turning Twitter into a kind of everything is to add dating features to the social network. Perfect, I’ve always missed that in my bank’s service portfolio! Imagine the same place where you can get drunk on tons of fake news while you find the love of your life (only to find out shortly after that it’s actually a bot) and while Elon Musk invests your savings in a cryptocurrency he was told would be a success . The only thing missing is that it also offers on-demand content and take-home kebabs.

Elon Musk paid a lot more for Twitter than it was really worth, we can all agree on that and it is also more than understandable that he wants to get his investment back, it would be more than necessary. The problem is not that he lacks a compass, no, The problem is that in his world, there doesn’t seem to be a north he’s looking to find his bearings..
