Twitter is putting its own little twist on its first earnings call as a public company.
Alongside the call, which is planned for February 5th at 2PM PT, Twitter says it will also field questions from Twitter users via the #TWTRearnings hashtag.

Really, it would be more strange if Twitter didn’t do a Twitter-based Q&A.
One thing that’s not clear? How much time Twitter will devote to public questions compared to those from investors and analysts. It’s also hard to say how useful user questions are going to be.

So how did Twitter do in its first quarter? We’ll know soon enough.
