Great news! @chockenberry, the creator of the great #Twitteriffic—which Elon Musk destroyed—is releasing a new app called #Tapestry.

Another example of the risks that come with building a business on top of someone else's privately controlled platform. Just ask The Icon Factory and Tapbots. I hope the makers of the MimeStream GMail app are paying attention.
