Honestly I'd bet Barnes and Noble but I haven't checked recently. Not sure how they are competing with the megapower Amazon.

If we are seriously going to have a 2016 Company Ghoulpool I'd say I don't see Twitter making it to the end of the year without being bought out.

I do not understand how they monetize.

twitter seems almost too big to fail these days. if it were ever at genuine risk for going under, all the lovely news sites that use tweets for 90% of their content would probably bail it out.

The IBM strategy in the 80s? Flood the market with a sub par product and persist by sheer inertia?

Plausible.

Yeah, after putting Borders out of business and almost killing off Barnes & Nobel Amazon is all like Psych we are opening 300-400 bookstores. In shopping malls.

Circuit City is back, gas is under $2 a gallon, Clinton and Bush are running for President, it's a magical time to be alive in the 90s.

Yeah I know, quoting Three Olives but Keuring or condo do not appear in the post.


So checkmate Barnes and Noble. Nail in the coffin? :shrug:
