Twitter is celebrating their 4th birthday today. Twitter co-founder Jack Dorsey sent out the first Tweet on March 21st, 2006. This is back when it was called Twttr.

Here’s a CBS 5 News video from 2007 featuring Robert Scoble talking about Twitter a couple of weeks after Twitter won a Web Award at SXSW 2007.

UPDATE: Fail Whale creator Yiying Lu made this beautiful illustration in honor of Twitter’s 4th birthday.
