I was at Chirp, Twitter’s developer conference, yesterday in San Francisco.
First, let me say I fully recognize the tireless effort the folks at Twitter put into making such a great event. It showed in so many ways.
The team announced a number of things like some metrics and the new ad platform.
It was great to meet so many developers at once and in one place like that. The diversity of applications and creativity was inspiring. And so was the energy level.
I’m most excited about where the platform is going and all of the new capabilities of the platform, namely Places, Annotations, User Streams and @anywhere. These are all important things that will give developers a more exciting canvas to build highly differentiated applications and richer user experiences.
We have a number of portfolio companies that build stuff on the Twitter API. I’m looking forward to see what they will come up next.
I’m also looking forward to investing in new startups that have a vision for new apps based on Annotations. So drop me a line if that’s what you are doing!
