SHOW NOTES:

  • Meta launches Twitter-clone called “Threads”)

IT’S GETTING OBVIOUS THAT TWITTER IS STRUGGLING AND YOU’D LIKE SOMETHING BETTER

  • It’s an important tool, but it’s not keeping up with the needs of the modern world
  • The alternatives all seems to have more questions than answers
  • But the pain is enough to consider modernization options

BUT WHAT ALL IS INVOLVED IN MOVING TO A MODERNIZED VERSION OF THE APP?

  • Let’s evaluate what’s there today. Do we see the good or what’s missing?
  • What can it replace today? What can’t it replace? 
  • What’s the roadmap? Will the roadmap ever replace all that’s missing? 
  • What’s important to us? Can we quantify it instead of just making it emotional?
  • How long do we need to live with the alternative, potentially in parallel?
  • What’s the learning curve? Can you re-training the user-base?
  • How do you migrate data? How much data will you lose? 
  • How do you know if this will be successful when you start the modernization?
