What's your point? We shouldn't be poking holes in faulty business models? I don't think that's a good idea. Groupon is quite embarrassing, the Pets.com of web 2.0 for sure. On top of that, the founders are greedy crooks.
I think Twitter is in a far better position...it has taken me a while to realize this, but the truth is that they don't need a business model, really, they can just sell their data to people who do have a business model (like Google). Twitter will sell when it can get a really good bidding war between FB and Google, and maybe MS too. Now, they may screw it up and only get a few million, but this is still going to be a huge success by non-silicon valley standards.
