- Dick Costolo ist derzeitiger CEO von Twitter und war dessen früherer COO. Er übernahm das Amt des CEO von Evan Williams im Oktober 2010. Er machte einen Abschluss als Bachelor der Informatik an der University of Michigan und seinen Master an der University of California, Berkeley. Costolo beschäftigte sich während seiner Studienzeit an der University of Michigan mit Schauspiel, er nahm an Schauspiel-Kursen teil um die Abschluss-Anforderungen der Universität zu erfüllen. Nach seinem Abschluss entschied er keine Angebote von Technologie-Unternehmen anzunehmen, um nach Chicago zu ziehen, wo er als Stand-up-Comedy arbeitete. Im Jahr 2004 gründete Costolo zusammen mit Eric Lunt, Steve Olechowski und Matt Shobe den Web Feed-Anbieter FeedBurner. Nachdem Google FeedBurner 2007 gekauft hatte, wurde Dick Costolo ein Angestellter des Unternehmens. Nach der Übernahme arbeitete Costolo in anderen Bereichen von Google. Er verließ Google 2009, um im September 2009 Twitter als dessen COO beizutreten. Er wurde 2010 CEO von Twitter, und obwohl er diese Position nur vorübergehend ausfüllen sollte, während sein Vorgänger Evan Williams auf Vaterschaftsurlaub war, dürfte er den Posten womöglich dauerhaft behalten.
