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.
