A communicator’s love song to Twitter

A supposedly bleak outlook for the social media phenomenon saddens this communicator

Lately it’s been relatively smooth sailing on Twitter—I haven’t seen the “fail whale” in a while, and, aside from the one time Twitter accidentally deleted everyone’s followers/followees, I can’t really think of any recent problems with the service (knock wood).

But just when the waters seem relatively calm, I read in Business Week about three recent shifts at Twitter that are making investors think twice about the service’s ultimate worth.

Add all three together and it pretty much spells trouble in paradise.
