Twitter's base DNA was building a "broadcast" platform with a simplistic I/O of communication between two parties. (keyword TWO) This makes sense in the context of Twitter's underpinnings in emergency vehicle / taxi dispatch. (1) What it's actually becomes is a massive discussion board where information is organized around people rather than topics. With the genius tweak of limiting to 140 characters to drive word economy and a low commitment tax to open the app and participate. As such I am baffled why they don't roll some basic community and forum management tools. People are having discussions! In a group! So give them some tools to solve the oldest community challenges in the book of trolling, content discovery, relationship development, etc. (1) http://www.briansolis.com/2011/04/twitter-co-founder-jack-dorsey-and-the-ideas-that-sparked-a-revolution/ http://www.briansolis.com/2011/04/twitter-co-founder-jack-do...
