At a gender gathering held by Rohini Nilekani Philanthropies<\/a> in September of this year, Socratus<\/a> conducted a ‘Twitter of the Future’ exercise with participants, where participants came up with Twitter handles and tweets that imagined the world 25 years from now. The goal of the exercise was to collectively sketch ways in which we can get to that future from where we are today.<\/p>

Why Twitter? Because it provides a sense of breaking news, of seeing the future as if it were happening right now. Plus, Socratus wanted to get everyone’s imagination of Twitter out there before Musk kicks everyone out eventually.<\/p>

Here’s a small selection of some of the funniest tweets that emerged from the session. <\/p>
