The saga of Twitter's potential acquisition, explained via its year-old Moments feature
Exactly one year ago -- one day after being reinstated as CEO -- Twitter cofounder and product visionary Jack Dorsey announced Twitter Moments.

"Moments is a bold new experience that I think does question a lot of our fundamentals. Moments is one piece that makes all of Twitter better and easier to understand," Dorsey told investors in October.
