Interviews and product demo with founders Jack Dorsey, Biz Stone and Evan Williams at Twitter's first office in San Francisco. The first half of the video is an interview with the guys on how Twitter became to be. The second half beginning at 9:04 is an on-screen demo of Twitter as it looked on December 1, 2006.

This is episode 11 of LunchMeet, a web video series on Internet startups I produced along with Irina Slutsky while we were both employed at PodTech from 2006-07. This episode was originally published on December 5th, 2006.

    They twitter - before the verb "tweet" was adopted. Nice throwback.

    Wow, this is really cool. I'm kinda new to twitter so I wasn't around in the early days. So this video is great for me because I love knowing about the beginning of great sites. Thanks for posting this.
