Twitter's valuation is down to $19B, which is what Facebook paid for WhatsApp. I wouldn't be surprised if Facebook would make a bid for Twitter at this price, even though FB+Insta combo seems to be killing them. I can't believe Twitter's product people are so asleep at the wheel. The success of Instagram shows how consumers want to consume content. If twitter was as simple as Instagram (and got rid of its silly 140 char limit) then it would have a chance of going mass market. You can already tweet photos, videos, but not more than 140 characters? Really? You can't have threaded comments? It's a mess, and the management is much too afraid to change the product. Zuck made many changes to FB over the years with users revolting at every stage. Twitter stood still. It's obvious now which strategy is the right one. Twitter needs to grow up and get serious if it wants to grow beyond its niche.
