Twitter doesn't have the same operational costs though, so that top-line number doesn't need to be as high as you would think it would be.

- unalone 18y agoBut Twitter is valuable because of the number of people using it. Get rid of them and other users dwindle, and it would feed back on itself. That's the same problem that Facebook has: each user less is a drop in value for the site.
- redrobot5050 18y agoActually, Twitter's users are worthless. They are a cost to Twitter -- and they bring in no revenue (yet). (Obviously this doesn't apply to their new business/commercial accounts). Facebook's users at least see Ads. I have actually bought stuff off Facebook because the targeting was perfect. And Twitter's user base is about 6 million, which is also a far cry from Facebook's 50 to 175 million, depending on what number you believe.
