Jack Dorsey, Creator, Chairman and co-founder of Twitter was speaking at New York Internet Week 2 weeks ago.
Despite all the attention from the speakers, all the mentions in the media, the fact that the organizers had to set a second room with TV screens to follow his speech, Jack Dorsey remains humble and accessible.
"We didn't see the success of Twitter coming. We knew it would work since we'll seen previous example at working places. But we've never had anticipated that the public would adopt the product that much.
"We also didn't develop all the product ourself. A lot of the features, such as the search feature, came only by observation of user behaviors. We see ourselves as user and developer driven. We adapt with the market.
"We are not in competition with Google. They have a search engine. We have a discovery engine.
"For sure the buzz will fall. But the day people will stop to talk about it, we hope will be the day they are using it. We'd like to become a utility."
