The power of twitter is how frictionless it is to share. You don't have to sweat over every time who will see it, what your friends will think about it, and how it will look because by design there is no visual and privacy decisions. I believe if anything new that comes along it needs to maintain this aspect and not clutter it with settings and features.
But isn't the real question from consumer's perspective: What is it that Twitter (or others including Facebook) fail to solve? How can a solution be defined so it is just as frictionless?
And since Twitter is a platform, richer sharing solutions or parallel communities (Instagram, Pinterest, Picdish) are being built that just take advantage of the post to Twitter. In this case the power of Twitter is the existing community.
In my view, the future are sharing tools and platforms that are 1) simply more aware of what we are doing and 2) also allow us to be more aware of what others are doing to enable more meaningful 1-to-1 connections.
