I think it does rather remain to be seen if Twitter is a fad, or a sustainable long term business.
The value is in the community, which could be lured onto something else pretty quickly.
- percept 17y agoWhat he said ^^. What's the next trend going to be? I'd guess something mobile (though Twitter already has short messaging covered).
- marknutter 17y ago> The value is in the community, which could be lured onto something else pretty quickly. Tell that to the MS Bing folks. Luring people can be more difficult than you might think.
- axod 17y agoMS Bing have a truly awful brand. Widely detested and associated with crashing computers. I agree it's difficult for one person to lure a community, just as it's difficult for any one person to win the lottery. But the probability that someone will win the lotto is very close to 1. I don't think twitter has a large amount of lockin yet.
