As grandes histórias de sucesso têm normalmente origem em coisas tão normais como as histórias de insucesso. O que poderia servir para explicar o porquê de um plano ter falhado serve noutros casos para explicar o quanto seria impossível algo falhar em tão singela planificação.
A linha que separa o prémio do último lugar é tão fina, mas mesmo tão fina, que só porque quem lá anda ou andou a consegue ver. A quem anda por fora passa absolutamente despercebida.
Conheça agora a história e a fotografia dos primórdios do Twitter que até esteve para se chamar Stat.us.

'twttr sketch' por Jack Dorsey
“On May 31st, 2000, I signed up with a new service called LiveJournal. I was user 4,136 which entitled me a permanent account and street cred in some alternate geeky universe which I have not yet visited. I was living in the Sunshine Biscuit Factory in Oakland California and starting a company to dispatch couriers, taxis, and emergency services from the web.
One night in July of that year I had an idea to make a more “live” LiveJournal. Real-time, up-to-date, from the road. Akin to updating your AIM status from wherever you are, and sharing it. For the next 5 years, I thought about this concept and tried to silently introduce it into my various projects. It slipped into my dispatch work. It slipped into my networks of medical devices. It slipped into an idea for a frictionless service market. It was everywhere I looked: a wonderful abstraction which was easy to implement and understand.
The 6th year; the idea has finally solidified (thanks to the massively creative environment my employer Odeo provides) and taken a novel form. We’re calling it twttr (though this original rendering calls it stat.us; I love the word.ed domains, e.g. gu.st). It’s evolved a lot in the past few months. From an excited discussion and persuasion on the South Park playground to a recently approved application for a SMS shortcode. I’m happy this idea has taken root; I hope it thrives.“

Bons planos.
