TwitterGram is an independent technology publication. We report on social platforms, micro-publishing, creator tooling, and the open-web protocols that shape how information moves online.
What we cover
The name TwitterGram nods to one of the earliest experiments in podcast-meets-microblogging — Dave Winer's 2007 prototype that bolted short audio recordings onto Twitter posts. The original idea was small, pragmatic, and a few years ahead of where the internet was ready to go. That's the territory we like best: tools and techniques that look modest at first glance and turn out to define the next decade of social software.
Our coverage runs across four broad beats:
- Platforms — Twitter, Bluesky, Threads, Mastodon, and the next generation of social networks competing to host public conversation.
- Micro-publishing — short-form audio, video, and text formats; the surprising distribution mechanics that make some of them stick.
- Creator economy — the tooling, monetization, and discovery problems that working publishers face every day.
- Open protocols — ActivityPub, ATProto, RSS, and the standards that determine whether the social web stays open or fragments again.
How we work
We aim for clear, useful reporting written for people who actually build, design, and run things online. No churn, no chase coverage — just a careful read of what's changing and why it matters. When we get something wrong, we fix it on the page and say so.
