As part of my job, I spend a lot of time in the @people.com archives. Since America's national archives are being scrubbed of its full history, thought I would share useful info from ours.

I loved Twitter. I really did. I loved watching awards shows and political debates in conversation with thousands of people. I liked being verified before you could buy a blue check (my son briefly thought I was famous). I justified staying on as a journalist with a need to know. No more. Buhbye.
