In many ways, I think that if Twitter goes to a fee-based service, and people migrate away in droves, it might say more about the community than it says about the application. - Daniel Rothamel

I think you're right, Daniel. - Jeff "RESPRES" Turner

If it were a more robust utility with no ads, I'd pay for a pro account in a heartbeat. It's already important to my business and social life and I don't see the future of the medium going away. - Brad Coy

One of the keys to Twitter is the "free" aspect - many (most) people don't "get" it until they've tried it for a while - maybe a 120 day free period and *then* fee based? - Jim Duncan

I have been off of it for the past 2 days because twirl is saying my limit is exceeded when I sign on - Tom Royce

In the early days of Blogger they had constant outages. The same owners are behind both, yet we never remember how unstable blogger was. If the problem was almost anything but high growth I would be worried. Instead the infrastructure will be refined to deal with the loads. - Tom Royce

How long will the average user put up with twitter (given the recent outages? ) No time at all. Why deal with the aggravation? It takes time to actually understand the utility anyway. How can this be accomplished when it's always problematic to use? - Brad Coy

The thing that has really be ticking me off is the Twhirl "penalty box," and the fact that I am not getting my Twitter updates via SMS. People "@" me, but I have no idea unless I am looking at my Twitter timeline because-- a) Twhirl has paused my updates, and/or b) the "@" replies aren't being delivered via SMS. Twitter's functionality is almost completely destroyed if you have to use Twitter.com all the time. I'm not a going to drink the Twitter haterade just yet, but they need get their s**t straight. - Daniel Rothamel

Truth be told, as a frequent user of twitter for messaging I have been real upset that it has not been working. Yes, I have become dependent on the utility for messaging as many others have. I sincerely hope that they get it fixed. As for now, I'm more or less off and have asked many not to send me DM's as I have had some communication breakdown due to the lack of availability. - Brad Coy
