Twitter Through History, Part 1

 

 

I love this question and it gets asked all the time.

‘What if Twitter had been around back in the day?’ It comes up almost all the time when someone is discussing Twitter. 3 years ago, it was, ‘What if Facebook had been around back in the day?’ Well, since Facebook is now drama and pics of you and your damn family on vacation, and food, Twitter is more apropos for this topic.

Why Twitter, Joe?

140 characters or less. If you can’t say it within that parameter, you probably shouldn’t be saying it anyway.

And with the 4th of July, we thought, let’s explore this topic with American presidents, and a few other great Americans. If the these guys had had
a Twitter account, here’s what it would have been like.

And their unique Twitter handles. Enjoy
