I know people are suffering with the demise of twitter. I don’t want to minimise their pain. But this is a life lesson for you young folks. Everything is MySpace and Napster. Everything is AOL and GeoCities. Everything is a Zune and an Amazon Fire Phone.

If it’s the first platform you counted on that died and let you down, it’s not the last.

@paco - So true! I’ve been around a lot longer than Twitter. I can’t say I miss the days of dial-up modems, but I certainly was around for many now defunct social applications. The thing you end up missing are the people, but I also found out that if you care enough, you find a way to stay in touch.
