    Twitter has been threatened by the web since it’s inception. They have no business model and they’ve already sunk more than a billion dollars of venture capitalist funding. Although, Google did offer to buy twitter some years ago.

    Facebook will eventually be gone just like Myspace. It’s about time someone made a new and improved social networking platform.
