i would love to see twitter-as-a-protocol but it's not going to be the current twitter. people forget that instagram bootstrapped itself off twitter's social graph and then bailed when they reached critical mass
I think this is what we all want, but I'm skeptical developers will return when it's implemented. Maybe if they focused on young devs? Give them an alternative to Snapchat?
that's interesting thought. i wouldn't be surprised if (big if) twitter opens up again and young developers embrace it for the first time (and old devs come back).
