Is Twitter Rendered Obsolete By Google+?

Posted by timothy on from the imitation-adoption-adaption-repeat dept.

suraj.sun writes with a ComputerWorld piece predicting the end of Twitter, at least in its current form. From the article: "It's only a matter of time before Twitter becomes a ghost town. While Google+ will soon do all the things Twitter does, Twitter can't support a long list of the things Google+ supports. Also on Google+, you can post pictures and videos directly in posts, launch immediately into a video chat, send your posts to nonmembers and even present all your posts marked 'Public' as a blog available to anyone with an Internet."

    Leave it to Linux/OSS folks to come up with a name even worse than the thing they are cloning that already has a fairly ridiculous name.
