best platform
What's best for advertisers on Twitter's platform isn't for there to be 20 different clients.
best people work
We focus on two things when hiring. First, find the best people you can in the world. And second, let them do their work. Just get out of their way.
aside best business fantastic invest passionate
If you have a fantastic idea you're really passionate about and are making $100,000 in your job, if you can set aside some of that to invest in servers or contractors or other folks, that's actually the best way to start a business in my opinion.
spend time
I spend a lot of time on forums, and they drive me crazy.
indignant people prefer totally
I used to always prefer to text, and in fact got indignant when people called. This was totally irrational.

The world cannot live on 140 characters alone.
creatively environment huge plays role
Environment plays a huge role in my ability to creatively focus and my mood - for better and worse.
design suddenly themes thousands
The themes in WordPress drive a lot of design trends. It democratizes design... You make a theme, and suddenly it's on hundreds and thousands of sites.
available offer shortest
Thanks to our friends at the dot-ME Registry, WordPress is able to offer one of the shortest and most effective URLs available today.
good might
Sometimes you might feel blogs are like TV: You have a thousand channels, but nothing good is on.
frustrated time
Sometimes, you have to be frustrated and do something unscalable and a waste of your time to be inspired.
travel
When I travel, which is most of the year, I live in TripIt.
vice
Just because someone uses Twitter doesn't mean they shouldn't use WordPress, and vice versa.
For WordPress to be world class, it needs to have a sustainable model.
