I’m not a regular Telegraph reader, so I may have missed something, but the website has an article today with a short bio of the Twitter trio of Jack Dorsey, Evan Williams and Biz Stone.

But nothing else. No story about Twitter, no story about online business, microblogging, or even bios that you couldn’t find on Wikipedia or elsewhere. Just links to their Twitter accounts and 3-4 paragraphs on each.

How odd, and rather pointless. Feel free to witness it for yourself.

In case you haven’t caught the new, Evan Williams is replacing Jack Dorsey as CEO of Twitter, with Dorsey now stepping into the role of Chairman.

The full explanation and announcement is on the Twitter blog.

It certainly seems to be in line with a new drive towards monetisation, possibly triggered by the financial crisis?
