It was supposed to be fun. 

It was supposed to be an “experiment.” 

Instead, it was a stinking mess.

Last week, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey proposed that ReCode’s Kara Swisher interview him entirely over Twitter. The unlikely pair carried out the plan Tuesday.

Dorsey positioned the idea as a novel test of Twitter’s conversational features, which was odd to anyone who has ever held any sort of Q&A over Twitter. That’s, well, a lot of peopleWhy would the CEO need to test this out in so public a fashion?

I’ve never done this before. But it might be a feature we want to build so everyone can do it! So we get to test and learn in public.
