In a storm of tweets, Dorsey celebrated the social network’s ninth birthday on Saturday by thanking the reporters and editors who helped turn the site from a stream of 140-character updates to a river of news and commentary.
⚡️‼️ 1/Twitter turns 9 years old today. 9 years! Birthdays are always a good time to express some gratitude.

2/So many around the world have helped make Twitter what it is, but there's one group I'd like to thank today: journalists.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
3/Journalists play a critical role in our society: keep the world honest and balanced. They are true servants of the people.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
4/After the tech early-adopters, journalists were next to take to Twitter. They used it as a source, to break news, and to link their work.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
5/Journalists were a big part of why we grew so quickly and still a big reason why people use Twitter: news. It's a natural fit.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
7/Journalists make Twitter better by providing context, research, and a balanced perspective drawn from what the people experience.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
8/THANK YOU for keeping the world (and us!) honest and using Twitter to do your work. We wouldn't be here without you.
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015
9/And an extra-special thanks to the one who first broke the news that http://t.co/djh1XZJUKJ was a thing: @om! We love you Om!
— Jack (@jack) March 21, 2015 The final shoutout to Om Malik, who founded the venerable tech site GigaOm, is bittersweet. GigaOm suddenly stopped publishing earlier this month after investors, having failed to sell the company, cut off funding for the site.
