]]> Comment on Has Twitter as a platform stalled? by M Borghese http://brianbreslin.com/has-twitter-as-a-platform-stalled/#comment-659 M Borghese Wed, 25 Jun 2008 23:11:54 +0000 http://brianbreslin.com/?p=262#comment-659 I agree - it is time to take a look at Twitter and access it's importance on the web. While the platform may remain important to you personally, it may not be a platform you want to devote additional time/attention/resources to. Personally, I'm a newcomer to Twitter and micro-blogging, using it as a way to keep an eye on the musings of a few interesting characters. My personal experience with Twitter has been that it suffers from overcapacity/server problems far more often than I would expect for such a "popular" service. I don't complain about it (the service is free after all) but I do see how it's shortcomings, whether they are tech-based or human-based, can give you pause when deciding if you should continue working with it professionally. Sorry I can't offer much in the way of advice on how to proceed or where to go next. But I figured I should offer my support and say that I do feel you're moving in the right direction by reexamining the platform's utility and popularity.

I think it is important because it is building a new SOI. SOI will be important for all these industries as we struggle with the economy and regain the controls on what has fallen to pieces in the past years. I embrace social networking and I like it.

It was great to met you at this Twitter meetup, maybe I'll join you in Miami for more beer and Twitter chat. Cheers.
