Well worth reading the whole thing. It’s not too long, and he’s already Readability’d it for us, if you will.
But if you don’t have time:
• #NewTwitter will make Twitter more mainstream, and will provide advertisement opportunities.
• #NewTwitter is a shift away from being a platform towards being a destination (or “place of consumption,” if you will), and as such further complicates relationships with third-party developers.
• Twitter should become decentralized, but it’s clearly in Twitter’s best interested not to.
• Alex circulated a document internally advocating decentralization, and executives disagreed (understandably).
