Twitter is looking to hire and here are a few updates from Biz Stone and his wonderful team.
Hello Twitter-ers,
We’ve been really busy behind the scenes these days at Twitter HQ. Things are moving as fast as ever and we’re growing six ways from Sunday. In fact, we’re hoping to hire for a bunch of new positions. If you or someone you know wants to work at a small company with a bright future then by all means, check out our jobs page: http://twitter.com/help/jobs
TweetUp with Bijan in Boston
If you’re anywhere near Cambridge, MA on Wednesday morning this week you might want to swing by the Andala Coffee House in Central Square. Our board member Bijan Sabet along with Twitter users and developers are gathering from 8:30—10:30am for a TweetUp. Chat about Twitter as a consumer communication utility as well as a utility for applications and services. Also, you’ll meet some local Twitter-ers. Maybe @dunkindonuts will make an appearance.

Interacting with Twitter Data
Our API Lead Alex Payne recently outlined five ways developers can interact with Twitter. Lots of API developers may not be aware that we have a special Search API, a Data Mining Feed, a Pinging Service via Gnip, and plans for introducing a way to access what we jokingly refer to as the Twitter Firehose–the entire stream of tweets that are publicly available from all around the world. For more information be sure to read Alex’s blog post here: http://bit.ly/36nf7F
Tuesday: A Big Day for Twitter
Which Twitter account will belong to the next President of the United States? Will it be @johnmccain or @barackobama? We anticipate record-breaking activity on Twitter all day tomorrow. We’ll be staying late at work watching Current TV’s Twitter-powered election night programming. We’re looking forward to the
live DJ set by Diplo combined with key results, facts and information. Check it out: http://current.com/electionTwitter App on LinkedIn
Recently, the professional networking service LinkedIn announced a new application platform. One of the first applications in the directory is a neat little app built using Twitter called Company Buzz. The application lets you see what people are saying about the companies and topics you care about and there’s a neat little trending component as well. If you’re on LinkedIn, it’s really easy to install the app: http://bit.ly/Q2of5
