Every business having a Twitter account won't save Twitter any better than everyone having an AOL keyword saved AOL.
- Altay- 11y agoI don't think that's a fair comparison. AOL didn't initially position itself as a portal. It positioned itself as an ISP with a portal. Had AOL built itself as a web portal like Yahoo from the start it may very well have stayed relevant. I still have business partners (in non tech fields) that use their AOL email and news/portal services.
