As we reported earlier, Twitter has pulled the plug on Tumblr’s friend-finder feature. I feel like it’s a huge, baffling, mistake, and it seems like I’m not the only one.
Alex Choi, an engineer at Twitter, responded to a tweet defending the company with this:
@nickbilton I wholeheartedly agree, but this@tumblr business just stinks.— alex choi (@xc) August 23, 2012
Does that sound like a company that has all of its ducks in a row, has everyone on board, or is running in a million different directions? I think it’s the latter, and it’s not impressive whatsoever.
