Richard MacManus on Nostr: Someone said the other day that what is now known as “X” is *not* the Twitter ...
Someone said the other day that what is now known as “X” is *not* the Twitter most of us knew and loved. I totally agree and in fact, I’m glad it’s called X now, because we can remember Twitter for what it was and not what it became over the past year. I actually have similar feelings about ReadWriteWeb, which as far as I’m concerned ended in October 2012 when I left the site and it was re-branded ReadWrite by the new owners. ReadWrite ≠ RWW, even though they inherited my site’s old content.
