24May01 | The greatest tweet of all-time

Brian Acton, founder of Whatsapp, for some reason recently removed all of his tweets. So I had to fetch it from the web archive.

On Monday, Aug 3rd, 2009, he wrote:

“Facebook turned me down. It was a great opportunity to connect with some fantastic people. Looking forward to life's next adventure.”

FB bought Whatsapp for 19B.

I still consider this to be the single greatest tweet of all-time.

Great demeanor, insane ability.
