Twitter - Pros and Cons

Posted by Marshall on May 31, 2008 | Link It

Wish I could stream video to QIK like Robert Scoble does in Twitter execs talk about scalability and troubles - but then, I don't have 20,000 Twitter Followers - and I guess this video explains what kinds of problems that may, from time to time, create for Twitter - I mean, Twitter staying up - as it's been going down a lot.

 

 

According to this video that Scoble made today, Twitter problems are going to persist for some time- and, perhaps, Twitter is a victim of it's own success - as more people have more followers - more messages are being replicated.

By the way, I'd addicted to Twitter.   Last night I was having dinner on W 21st Street in Manhattan and I twittered about it.  As it turns out, I was sketching from a table that was right outside the restaurant and in walks Frederic Guarino @fredericguarino .

Such a meeting could never have happened without Twitter, and it was totally unplanned.
