My top focus will be to guide the company culture that energy that feeling. It s important that everyone understands the whole story of Twitter and each of our roles in that story. I ll shape the experience internally so it s also be felt outside the company Stone wrote in his blog post on Tuesday.

After Tea Time we spoke privately and Jack told me that he really did -- he wanted me to come back and work at Twitter. The company I co-founded the service I co-invented. I was stunned but I knew the answer he added.
