Interesting negotiations considering the insanely high amount of leverage Twitter has.
"That's a really nice Twitter client you've got there, it'd be a shame if anything happened to it..."
- ivankirigin 16y agotwitter's leverage is limited by structural constraints in maintaining a good developer ecosystem.
- justin 16y agoWhich they've demonstrated that they are willing to test the limits on multiple occasions recently (ubersocial, "no new clients" post, etc).
- chc 16y agoTwitter have explicitly said they don't see a lot of value in third-party client software, so that doesn't seem likely to constrain them here.
- zaidf 16y agoI'd think the law limits their leverage, too. I don't think twitter can threaten, directly or indirectly, to cripple tweetdeck in any way if the sale doesn't go through or if they sell to another party.
