On Medium, Broderick wrote: “It’s been almost three years since I was first given the opportunity to join Twitter and a lot has changed since that first welcome Tweet (and I’m not just referencing that old-school, underscore-heavy username).

“I never thought I’d get the opportunity to work for a platform that has such an amazing impact in the world. It’s evolved from the best second-screen for television to the television screen of the future, it’s the easiest way to follow breaking news about what’s happening in the world and it’s full of the funniest, most interesting and entertaining people you could ever follow.”
