- CityandColourrr, on 05/29/2009, -10/+32Wasn't funny.
- Yankees368, on 05/29/2009, -4/+23I hate twitter
- sirbeta, on 05/29/2009, -1/+15Link that works: http://www.geekculture.com/joyoftech/joyarchives/1 ...
- angelgabe, on 05/29/2009, -0/+9iTwitter would cost $100/year to use but would never really work properly so Apple would rename the service .you.
- Jeffler, on 05/29/2009, -0/+7Dugg, but why not just link to JOT instead of blogspam?
- xShad0w, on 05/29/2009, -1/+5"thenextweb.com" sucks...
- tyrulz, on 05/29/2009, -1/+5sure as ***** wouldn't be free
- Hellahulla, on 05/29/2009, -0/+3Probably because you don't get "So and so is a gothic vampire, what kind are you, click to find out" or "What's their name has just uploaded photos from pet society, click here to join" and other such likes, every 10 bloody minutes.
Meh. - wesleyzero, on 05/29/2009, -0/+3We'd have to suffer through douchey Twitter commercials?
- R031E5, on 05/29/2009, -0/+3Web 2.0 is so 2005.
- superheroboy, on 05/29/2009, -2/+4http://rorr.im
- cyberoidx, on 05/29/2009, -1/+3They'd reject half the tweets.
- datdamonfoo, on 05/29/2009, -0/+2Twitter and Apple are extremely lame, so it makes sense they'd form a perfectly lame union.
- SpykerSpeed, on 05/29/2009, -5/+7Can we all just shut up about Twitter? Why has that stupid site become popular? Even the name is annoying.
- R031E5, on 05/29/2009, -0/+2They would DRM all the tweets and charge 99 cents to see each one, then they would charge another 30 cents to remove the DRM that they initially put.
- zakool21, on 05/29/2009, -0/+2What are you trying to say, that if Apple bought Twitter, the website would be down?
- blinktude, on 05/29/2009, -0/+2all twits will be made at starbucks
- warcin, on 05/29/2009, -1/+3I think someone has overestimated apples impact on the computer market. Why yes it would become the current favorite toy of the apple fanboy but we are really only talking 2-3%market share here
- MeridianMP, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1If I had enough money, I would buy Twitter, take down the site and make sure it never resurfaced again. Ever. Because it sucks-end of story. Donezo. Game over.
- borez, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1Twapple.
- skshow289, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1Okay, so there's no image that pops up. Are you suggesting that if Apple bought Twitter that Twitter would go away? I'm sure you don't - but just the same, no image pops up when I click on the link at the top of the page.
- joshuakelly20, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1and computers are so 1980's but you still use it moron,
- FredFredrickson, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1The subject is rife with good joke opportunities, and this graphic takes advantage of none of them.
- inactive, on 05/29/2009, -1/+2All the non apple fanboys would stop using it, it would become another Internet backwater like .mac
you would pay text messaging like rates to use it.
anyone else who tried to make a web based instant messaging service would get sued. because apple "invented" it - rmacnguyen, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1I thought comics were supposed to be funny, not bore me to death. I kept reading, hoping more with every word that it'd be worth it in the end. All I wanted was a chuckle, or even a smile, but all I came out with was hatred for whomever wrote this. If only I knew it was Joy of Tech before I clicked the link...or at least had the foresight to employ tl;dr...
- Jeffler, on 05/29/2009, -0/+1140
- joshuak92, on 05/29/2009, -0/+0I think they'd put a 99 character maximum on the tweets, though..
- sandipc, on 05/29/2009, -1/+1why is this being dugg down? the site posted obviously sucks, and this is just a mirror or the original page.
- howea, on 05/29/2009, -1/+1Yeah, and the poster should have mentioned that
- MrZaiko, on 05/29/2009, -2/+2iTweet sounds better
- alpharaptor, on 05/29/2009, -2/+2a small price to pay to be rid of twitter
- Dynamoo, on 05/29/2009, -4/+4107 Diggs and down.
http://rorr.im/digg.com/apple/if_apple_bought_twit ... - soapko, on 05/29/2009, -0/+0Meh. "Twitter finally makes money" was funny. The other stuff? Not so much.
- grimacebrown, on 05/29/2009, -0/+0To Summarize...
Blah blah blah Old jokes about Apple being proprietary blah blah blah blah old jokes about how social networking wastes people's time blah blah blah gufaw gublah Dumb joke to make a pun on zits... - cygnus2112, on 05/29/2009, -3/+2***** Twitter. Almost as annoying as Twitter's users.
- discord660111, on 05/30/2009, -1/+0To zakool21, I wanted to share some cool stuff with you. Is there a way to do that? If you know how to leave me a note. I'm a newbie on Digg.
- danydral, on 05/29/2009, -1/+0we would be paying money to apple to get itweet logo on Twitter.
- FakeHipster, on 05/29/2009, -4/+3Hey look, its a twitter article on digg! I'm sure all the comments will be extremely supportive of Twitter and interested in how it works and what it can do for communication Web 2.0.
- memper, on 05/29/2009, -2/+1What's Twitter?
- BorsKaegel, on 05/29/2009, -2/+1iTwitter, backed by patron Apple, creates giant fail whale-shaped dirigibles that roam the skies with the sole purpose of seeking out those not connected to iTwitter, subsequently sending global iTweets to the masses, heckling them roundly.
- akabigwurm, on 05/29/2009, -1/+0You can tell an Apple fan made this.
- digitalpencil, on 05/29/2009, -7/+5lol. that was actually pretty funny.. i could actually see Apple vetting tweets before airing them.
- BrendanSheehan, on 05/29/2009, -9/+6This is one JOT comic that actually is funny. Ha, ending it all with "twitter makes money". Not genius, but close.
- Arkyll, on 07/16/2009, -6/+3The world would end!!
- inactive, on 05/29/2009, -5/+1***** Twitter...***** Facebook...***** Yahoo...*****
