Twitter's problems are the result of architecture, XMPP may be the answer
- anotherjesse 18y agoTwitter has been offering jabber/pub-sub to larger API consumers for a while (most aggregators like tweetscan use it as their interface with twitter) I agree with the premise that they should be using pub-sub for (most) api clients, but twitter agrees as wel - and have been working towards it (hence large consumers already using it)
