great Kentucky bourbon as well
ct

This is also not the Evan Williams I was expecting. I definitely don't want to put his guy in my mouth.

The Evan Williams I know is a fine, long-standing Kentucky Bourbon.

Quotes

"We do think Twitter is potentially a mainstream application. The way I look at it, coming from the blogging world, is that it touches a lot of the same motivations that drive people to blog, especially the more social motivations and the universal desire to put thoughts out there. Now there’s such a low barrier, combined with the ubiquity of mobile, we really think that we can reach very far and wide." - Q&A With Evan Williams, VentureBeat

"We don't like to make too big a deal of [Twitter's success]. We don't want to rush it." - Twitter improves service, base; next, revenue, San Francisco Chronicle
