Users do not equal revenue: Repeat that 10x before bed

You all do realize that Twitter is just a Facebook status update… that you can now link to your Facebook status updates? You know that right?

Apparently our president doesn’t know that. I honestly wasn’t terribly concerned about the economy until Obama asked Twitter CEO for economic advice. You know, Twitter, the company that has burnt through four years of venture capital and still swears it will figure out a plan generate revenue … soon, they promise, really soon.

Also news to me is that my, now presumedly mentally handicapped, generation has changed the definition of business terminology that has been around since the advent of commerce. This article claims that Twitter experienced 33% growth last month.

In this case, “growth” refers to users not revenue. On planet Viability, in the system of Actually Does Something Valuable, “growth” refers to revenue just as it has for hundreds of years.
