It looks like Twitter is in need of ideas, and possibly community, although I don’t see how you can build community 140 characters at a time. But then, obviously, as anyone who knows me can tell, I can’t even get out a tenth of an idea in that number of characters, and I have no interest in trying to learn.
I guess the technology of fluther won’t change now. So all those questions about what fluther should change will be moot; exercises in navel gazing. Not that fluther doesn’t do that all the time, anyway.
The real problem will be that their energy will not be here. So it is likely that fluther will slowly die off because there will be no effort to make it grow. It could well become a slowly sinking ship, with Lisa being the last “man” on board—our captain.
Well, someone should ask a question about alternative places to go, so we can disappear like rats fleeing the sinking ship. I’m sure this is good news for the technical team. It is a good way for them to cash in on all the work they have done.
I wonder what is going to happen to the people who invested capital in fluther? It seems likely that funding will dry up, and when that happens, the servers will probably be sold at a fire sale and fluther will disappear. Well. That will teach us to get invested in any particular online community.
