Gregory's Server@bastianallgeier Not to forget the weird times a little bit later when someone invented Retweets RT @ which was weird because you further reduced the remaining chars.

@bkastl @bastianallgeier I know that I first thought "RT" was shor for "reply to" and I used it in that sense for a bit, confusing my 5 readers back then… until a friendly soul (rip b00gie) nudged me in the right direction 😃 @webrocker @bkastl @bastianallgeier @bkastl @bastianallgeier I remember that, had totally forgotten about the RT taking up more chars! Gas now to think of it. |
@bkastl oh right!! It's super interesting how I had to dig out all those memories of the early days. It all seems so obvious now, but it really was quite brain-bending back then. I remember when my professor introduced me to Twitter and I thought: wtf this is never going to go anywhere.
