How about "don't build your business on a free service's platform".
- arscan 14y agoFree? Free to whom? Twitter charges some users, but doesn't charge others. The same could be said about just about every platform out there. I don't think that's particularly useful advice, because I don't know what you mean by free (is Android free? what about network tv? what about the road systems?).
- dchuk 14y agoTwitter's API is free for API consumers...
- jcromartie 14y agoI mean a platform where the vast majority of users don't pay to use it. Why would Twitter be happy to engineer and support an API for Twitter client apps if it means they can't reach those users the way they need to to generate revenue?
