1. Ideals beat strategies. What infuriates people most about Twitter is that it seems to have no plan, scheme, or angle. "Hey, Twitter" say the pundits: "don't you know the business of business is to profit, by any means necessary?"
They're as wrong as Dubya was about Iraq. The business of business is to create value — and that's why Twitter's not playing the tired, old game of value extraction. It is trying, instead, to create a more authentic kind of value — and to do that, you need ideals. Twitter pursues its ideals — democracy, peace, equity — with the quiet intensity of a true revolutionary.

5. Neighborhoods beat networks. Twitter's network effects don't feel much like standard ones. I can subscribe to your feed, yet you don't have to subscribe to mine — times millions. What's going on here? Twitter realizes neighborhood effects, not just network effects: complex sets of intersecting, overlapping, mutually reinforcing network effects. Oprah's followers are a neighborhood, and so are Ashton's. You can benefit from joining many of these neighborhoods — not just one larger network

7. Laziness beats business. Twitter hasn't rushed to cram a "business model" down peoples' throats. Instead of back-slapping each other after cutting deals, the Twitter guys are lazy. Why? They're waiting to play, experiment, see what offers utility, creates value, and makes people truly better off. Business is too busy, most of the time, to care about any of that. Laziness says: "business models happen."
