Google-Jaiku: Twitter's Value Just Soared
- axod 19y ago"If Microsoft and Yahoo want to add Twitter functionality to their communication and publishing tools--which is now a competitive imperative--they can build this functionality themselves, or...buy Twitter. The first option, by the way, has failed miserably in the past. For example, Yahoo's soft-phone VOIP service is nowhere compared to Skype (which is saying something, given that Skype isn't exactly knocking the cover off the ball)." I don't think you can really compare writing a 'twitter like app' with a VOIP service. Rewriting twitter would probably take a day or 2 surely.
