Comment on Notes on Mixergy interview with TwitPic founder Noah Everett

Comments

Twitter makes about $25M yearly from search deals, and has a more sustainable business than TwitPic.

When can we kill the meme that twitter and facebook are not making money or are not profitable?

When they go public and we can see the balance sheets and not just press releases.

In the context of an interview with a tiny private company built on a clearly much bigger private company, I don't think your comment makes much sense.

It was a direct answer to your question which was explicitly about fb + twitter. What's not to get?

It was not at all a direct answer to the title of the original post, which implied twitter makes no money. It also doesn't make much sense, considering there are an inordinate number of profitable private companies.
