Evan Williams describes himself as "an American entrepreneur, originally a farm boy from Nebraska, who's been very lucky in business and life." This statement might be true if he was merely responsible for one giant leap in the Web 2.0 world.

Twitter is the most fascinating (and unusual) of all social media phenomenons. I don't know if I can say I'm proud, but I am definitely an avid user.
