Why some companies don’t dare to touch their services? Are they afraid of collapsing? Let’s take twitter and the service that is now valued for about $ 1 Billion and only few people in the world can understand why. Why twitter is stacked to 140 characters per tweet? OK they did this at the beginning when they had the SMS in mind, but why they don’t extend this now (is this an Obama decision too)? I know why. Maybe they don’t want to take URL shortening services out of business?

Already many people are saying that Twitter is a new IRC and there is no future at all. Thousands of followers with no meaning. Is anybody out there watching each tweet? Of course no. Everybody wants others to do that.

But I am just thinking the results, if Twitter decides one day to make money from a product like this:

“Upgrade now to a premium Twitter account for just $5.99/month and enjoy tweets up to 150 characters!” WOW!

Are you sure this day is far away?
