Default Twitter is going public: Would you buy?

Would you buy Twitter stock, why or why not? Do you use Twitter? Maybe you don't post on Twitter but do you frequently use it in that you follow people and click on the links of the tweets of the people you follow?



I would not as I am almost positive the only Twitter users are those in the 10-18 year old demographic. Goldman Sachs must (has to be) looking in the run profitability of this.

Dunno. I think it would be a good idea to play it like Facebook. Buy on the line, sell 2 hours later, buy in two weeks, sell in 3 then throw it away.

Other than that, what's the point? If it were profitable enough to pay dividends why would they go public?
