John Adams Will Try To “Fix Twitter”

John Adams, Twitter’s new Ops Engineer (and apparently a descendant of the guy from the HBO series), said in a Twitter message today (where else) that he’ll be working to “fix twitter.” While I’m guessing that isn’t exactly how Twitter would like to have him describe his new job, we wanted to know more. So TechCrunchIT’s Steve Gillmor put a camera in his face and made him talk. Interview above. Good luck John!


I spoke with Twitter co-founder Biz Stone about Adams’ hire via email this afternoon. He begins on July 7. They’ve also hired Rudy Winnacker from Google, where he has been a systems engineer for the past five years.
