Steve Gillmor: Twitter is on life support - Friendfeed taking over ?

Twitter has arrived and it is so fragile it can’t keep its own heartbeat going. Twitter executives finally admit it: they don’t know what’s wrong. They’ve got it on heart bypass right now, all innocent and sweet, lying there in intensive care with wires and monitors beeping and platform vendors scuttling in and out with phony looks of concern, taking quick side glances at their iPhones as they wolf down sandwiches in the cafeteria.

Now the doctors come down the hall, their faces frozen in ineptitude and practiced grief. “Sorry,” they begin as an intern laughs inappropriately in the back. “Computers suck, they can’t really do anything.
