Right now I'm contemplating how I can reduce file size to get it to load faster.webomaticaTue, 29 Apr 2008 12:44:19 -0000http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2008/04/28/is-twitter-worth-it/#comment-390680Also, I've fallen behind on my feeds again, but I want to say - excellent work on the site design, dude. It looks great!flammableTue, 29 Apr 2008 04:30:39 -0000http://www.webomatica.com/wordpress/2008/04/28/is-twitter-worth-it/#comment-390677Hey, I forgot about pre-Google YouTube. Certainly, monetizing YouTube sounds easier now than it did back then, though. If media companies like NBC didn't balk at Apple and Google and create Hulu, YouTube would have already had it made.<br><br>Essentially, Hulu is only a YouTube clone, anyway, just owned and operated by the media conglomerates. No user-created stuff alongside LOST and The Office. Apparently, NBC, FOX, etc. are all too good for the stage that everyone else uses.<br><br>Google bought Jaiku, so I can't see them buying Twitter, too. I suppose Google could combine Jaiku and GrandCentral into something interesting, but who knows what's going on over there...<br><br>Putting such a ludicrous price on Twitter is still insane, just like it was on Facebook. Maybe they think that by putting such a high price on their service, they'll find a buyer who's foolish enough to assume the numbers weren't pulled out of nowhere? I don't know.<br><br>As it stands, you're right - they're not making much money on their own, and they don't seem to have a clear plan to change that.flammableTue, 29 Apr 2008 04:30:03 -0000
