Daniel Graf has however decided to quit the company, wishing the company team success. Details of his departure were not clear, but it’s believed that the former Google Inc employee left because he was transferred to a lower position within the company.
He made his decision public through a tweet on Saturday 4, 2014: “Danke team, danke @Twitter! May you succeed in your mission, society needs you!”
Twitter Inc (NYSE:TWTR) chief executive officer Dick Costolo has been making changes in the company in an effort to ensure that the social media company releases more new products.
