Twitter is just a well-designed little brand. It cannot be compared to Google, but it can teach us what google missed. Twitter is a good example how name + usability + simple design works together. Same ideas works for Facebook - design and usability and less ads is why they outperform myspace. It seems like google cannot create entertainment services. They made almost perfect source code hosting, and their mail and reader are simple and usable, unlike stuffed with ads yahoo's mail, or that mess myspace. If you're trying to invite people to some service "just for fun" it must be simple, stupid and usable, with few ads. Like iPhone =)
