Why Twitter Is About To Get Old

Read Original

This article, originally from 2009, analyzes Twitter's transition into the mainstream. It argues that while the platform's scalability is tested, its real threat is becoming a noisy, unmanageable 'firehose' of information for users. The author suggests that without effective tools to filter this noise, Twitter's initial excitement will fade, leading to user disengagement.
