Africa will be one of the most populated continents in the next 20-30 yrs, the tech innovation is incredible w/ a large portion of the population still coming onto the internet. Huge opportunity especially for young people to join Twitter + for us to learn to best serve them.

Probably wise at this point, but Africa is a huge op for Twitter and for tech communications and enterprise tech cos. Nigeria and Kenya for sure but also a lot more hot spots. Not sure where it will coalesce but It's going to boom soon. One of TCs biggest international audiences. https://t.co/w8aw4sScwA

When I tweeted about my intention to spend a few months in Africa this year, I made a mistake and should have provided more context about why.

The company has made many, many promises about what it might do eventually and then mostly under-delivered https://t.co/YeSU8tPGop

Well knock me down with a feather, Jack’s not moving to Africa after all, who could possibly have foreseen this turn of events https://t.co/jFQyA4Kf3A

I had been working on my plans where I’d work decentralized, as my team and I do when we travel, but in light of COVID-19 and everything else going on I need to reevaluate. Either way we’ll continue to pursue opportunities in Africa.

Running Twitter is no sidehustle. The app is a fundamental communications utility Jack has failed to safeguard. Maybe corporate raiders could actually do better. Here's my full post on why: https://t.co/Un0Cx3NJcA
