@AlexMLeo for sure! parody accounts need labels, stat — PolitiTweet.org

@CarterGee Totally. This was the approach Tinder took — just prove that you’re who you say you are and you can get a badge. It’s a little trickier on Twitter (how do we *know* you’re a doctor?) but seems doable — PolitiTweet.org

@jedpauljust TWTR exists and it still does not have fleets (lol) — PolitiTweet.org

My feelings about verification are still: - It should have different flavors (“politician,” “journalist,” “doctor”) - It should be available to all - It is not nearly as complicated as Twitter thinks. Tinder launched verification months ago. Tinder! https://t.co/rsf7F0Jxoa — PolitiTweet.org

I think it’s harder to make the case that Stripe *isn’t* worth $70 billion than the case that it is. — PolitiTweet.org

@2xAught7 @Twitter it’s worth a look! — PolitiTweet.org

There is one extremely Twitter touch, which is that at the end of the day the Mac app tells you that you have been rate-limited for looking at too many tweets. Which is a bug that is also a feature. — PolitiTweet.org

It has been a LONG road to get here, but the latest build of @Twitter for Mac is fast, stable, and full-featured. I’m pretty much in heaven. — PolitiTweet.org

@mariainnyc I think there’s a reason they’re only promising to pay through the end of the year. Definitely an experiment. — PolitiTweet.org

Casey Newton @CaseyNewton

What’s interesting about Snapchat’s Spotlight is that it puts the incentive for making videos at the level of the content, rather than the creator. It feels like a big idea. https://t.co/ckWCyjgLGP https://t.co/QwZCJY2CRT — PolitiTweet.org
