To me, Twitter did not really seem to solve an existing problem at first, but people liked it, and it caught on. Same with Farmville. Personally I think the site has a good foundation as far as look and feel for a site aimed at the general public. This is just a new out of the box site. Let's see where they iterate to in 6 to 9 months. I think they have a good foundation to build on.
I can't believe I was such a dick in that comment above. Must have been a bad day. I still don't like the service, but I shouldn't have taken that karma police tone on.
