Comment on Twitter launches own shortener t.coparent

It's not a defense. It's a fact. My co-worker prefers to receive all tweets via SMS. They advertise the SMS feature at the top of every page. Calling people names at every turn isn't going to make your point more valid.

Last I saw something like 5% of users accessed twitter using SMS. Basing your limits on a very very very niche use case seems bizarre.

Realize we are all big time nerds with smartphones. Everyone else doesn't have one (yet?).

And when Twitter started out, even fewer of us had them.
