Why Twitter Must Die

Gotta say I agree with this. Not because I have something against Twitter (I don’t), but because as a software designer and database guy who sees the value of “community”, this is just real, real bad.

    Good read! Yeah, the mixture of an incredibly popular service and free price tag is a combination I don’t always understand the business model for, especially one like twitter where there’s not really a site you have to ever go on. I’ve enjoyed the twitter while I’ve used it, and I have seen the fail whale quite a few times in the short time I’ve been a member.

    But it should die? That seems kinda harsh for the sense of creating a catchy headline if you ask me. Maybe Twitter should be taught a lesson by having some competition steal a big piece of it’s “customer” base (and that may happen) but if it was no more then someone else would probably have this same issue, and if they don’t, it’s probably because Twitter did first. ;-)

    If this continues we’ll be forced to socialize in public . . . *gulp*!
