They are growing at double digit rates each month, so they must be doing something right. Perhaps you are analyzing this wrong, and their lack of features is a good thing, not a bad thing.

- snorkel 18y agoRight on. Twitter succeeds where others have failed because of its shear simplicity. Complicating the interface with advanced features that few people will use will not add to its appeal.
