On March 21, 2006,

Dorsey sent the social network’s first-ever tweet:”just setting up my twttr”

Not quite “one small step for man,” but it gets points for being concise.

At the time, Twttr didn’t look anything like it does today. To send a tweet, one would have to text a message to a specified phone number. From there, the short message would be broadcast to a selected group of friends.

Jack Dorsey sold his first tweet ever as an NFT for over $2.9 million with proceeds going to charity.
