I wrote a little blog post about how I think Yahoo! is going to try to buy Twitter – maybe sneak it under before they themselves are bought by Microsoft – because all of my former colleagues at Yahoo! are joining Twitter en masse!

I don’t think Yahoo should buy Twitter. Instead it would be great if Twitter get bought over by Yahoo. Yahoo can quite easy make a similar service but it’s hard to be profitable. Twitter has more and more technical issues recently.

I have to say – even with the current and ongoing infrastructure issues – I trust the Twitter team and it’s VC’s Union Square Ventures. I think that they are figuring it out and while it’s extremely frustrating (and maybe naive), I’m keeping the faith.

Nah. Yahoo need to get what they already have into shape before they make any more acquisitions.

Cisco should buy Twitter.

Twitter needs something, but I’m not certain that’s it. Whatever happens, I hope its ad free.

No they don;t need bought, or accquire, or anything., They just need a good database designer and migrate from Ruby on Rails to PHP or something that’s ‘mainstream strength.’

>>However, I would prefer not to see it go to Google.

I believe that if went to Google, they could solve the reliability problems–which reliability & scalability & visibility are its largest three issues. Google could help in all three.

The search + twitter + productivity app mashup would be sweet.

Google…as long as they didn’t go overboard with Adsense or other advertising.

If it went to Yahoo…it might suffer from the same fate that their carpet did. They ran out of money–and they ran out of carpet.

I think it would be a good move, especially with Google grabbing Jaiku (even if it might seem a bit copycat-ish.) And what people have said about stability is valid too.

I have no qualms with Yahoo or their acquisitions. I say, go for it, Yahoo! =)
