Not a fan of the idea that 45% of their revenue goes to employees that would leave if they weren't paid so highly. That logic is suspect because Twitter has done very little in the way of innovation over the last several years. Yeah they introduced cards, but that wasn't too complicated. A Twitter clone could be made by a dozen capable programmers over a summer. The programmers shouldn't be taking so much of the revenue.
Also the fact that the ads aren't as targeted as Facebook or Google hurts it's advertising capabilities. Still I don't think Twitter will go anywhere anytime soon, it seems like the go-to social network for power brokers, the press, and the intellectual elite. That's gotta count for something, right?
For me it's the cleanest user experience. And as opposed to Facebook, get's better with the more people you follow instead of worse. It's also got less spamming ads than Facebook and much more interesting content.
