In very strange news it seems like Jack Dorsey is firing key players at Twitter. Dorsey is back in as the head of product at Twitter and he seems to be remove the original team that are closely affiliated with Evan Williams, Biz Stone, and Jason Goldman. Evan Williams, Biz Stone, and Jason Goldman left Twitter in the past few months to stat their own incubator project.

I dont understand why Dorsey is removing all these people when they have grown Twitter up from his idea. It seems like Dorsey has fallen out with Stone, Williams and Goldman and is trying to get the company to start fresh.

Im a huge believer that Twitter was only successful because of Williams and Stone!

Yesterday it was announced that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey would be stepping down from his position, allowing Evan Williams, former Chairman to move into the position. Jack Dorsey is not gone from the scene, but rather will be taking over Evan’s former position as Chairman.

Why the sudden move? Economy? Direction?

Many of us are familiar with the problems Twitter experienced earlier this year with scalability issues, ultimately making Twitter unreliable, and forcing users to seek out alternatives such as Friendfeed. While dealing with this problem, this gave competition like Friendfeed the chance to move ahead of Twitter in terms of innovation, offerings, and development.

Could Twitter have become too stagnant and in need of fresh blood? Kinda ironic since both Evan and Jack are considerably young in the industry, but just goes to show you how fast things can move in the tech world.

It will be interesting to see what Evan Williams can do with Twitter and what new ideas might be implemented into the Twitter property in the near future.
