Evan Williams: How Twitter's
spectacular growth is being
driven by unexpected uses
In the year leading up to
this talk, the web tool

wolves are chasing the best and brightest among us...
• Financial (corporate and personal) shock
• Relationship breakdown
• Personal and/or legal challenges
• Interpersonal conflict and problems
• Health crisis, either mental or physical

collectively are written on the windows of our lives, our
communities, our workplaces, our governments and our world.
