Mat Balez Foolishly Predicts the Demise of Twitter

Mat Balez:

I make no bones about my disdain for Twitter. I’ve commented far and wide about the inanity and potential danger of the tool, and even discussed some of the associated social repercussions on this blog. But I’d like to now go one step further, and predict its imminent supernova-like implosion.

I’ll take that bet. I say Twitter traffic (measured in posts) will be notably higher one year from now. Perhaps staggeringly so.
