Is Twitter Rendered Obsolete By Google+?

Posted by timothy on Monday July 25, 2011 @01:42PM 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."

its still bullshit.
people NEED the freedom to pick aliases.
DUH.
I mean, duh! come on, google, I know you understand this.
so why all the fuss and fight?
what MOTIVES do you have, hmmm?
somehow, I assume bad motives. you try to remove all anonymity - but that is BAD for us. good for you, but uhm, we don't exist FOR YOU. you exist for us. until you learn that, I say
"goodbye google. and fuck you very much."
