Sorry to break it to you Elon but you really did spend $44 billion on the next MySpace. There's nothing you can do about it now. All we ask is that you please stop trashing your Tesla brand. Oh!!! and by the way recommend to the BOD to make Tom Zhu CEO of Tesla. You can stay at Twitter.

Twitter had so much potential under new leadership. There are so many ways he could have made the platform a richer experience. YouTube could have been a competitor. But he squandered it in a truly epic fashion.

MySpace didn't have the President of United States and the leader of Taliban on the same platform though. No matter what side of the debate you're on, Twitter does have solid network effects.
