Humphreys Mon, 31 Aug 2009 06:28:53 +0000 http://www.techcrunch.com/?p=47682#comment-2957338 I don't see Twitter becoming the ultimate authority any time soon due to it's many limitations. While Twitter is growing very fast it's also very evident that the majority of it is due to spam exploitation. The open ended Twitter API is leaving them vulnerable to not only numerous attacks but low quality score. Facebook has managed stable growth and appropriate filtering to eliminate such exploitations. If Twitter doesn't change its pattern it's going to become nothing more than a trend. I don’t see Twitter becoming the ultimate authority any time soon due to it’s many limitations.
