Tech: Twitter announced a huge initiative. So where’s the spark?

  • I heard on the backchannel that people want me to answer tougher questions. What’ya want to know? Will answer 10. Go.
  • Twitter CEO Evan Williams • In a tweet almost immediately after his keynote address at SXSW yesterday. Williams’ keynote was perhaps the most boring thing in the history of ever, based on audience response. He announced a major new initiative called @anywhere (which sounds just like Apture), yet he did it right away and subjected the audience to an by-all-accounts-awful Umair Haque interview. TechCrunch has some hilarious highlight tweets from the incident. Seems @ev needs to learn a little about suspense. source
