Twitter's 10th Anniversary: Conveying Gratitude to Users in 140 Characters

Twitter marked its 10th anniversary on March 21. On March 21, 2006, co-founder Jack Dorsey sent the first "tweet" from a prototype under development: "just setting up my twttr".

In a commemorative video, the company reflected on the past decade and expressed gratitude to its users with a tweet precisely 140 characters long.
