Wick Allison Misses on Twitter Prediction

This Friday is a special day at D Magazine because of something Wick said two years ago. The staff at the time was just really starting to embrace to Twitter, which Wick thought was a waste of time. He confidently proclaimed, “Twitter will be dead in two years.” This Friday marks two years since that proclamation. I will make a bold prediction of my own: Twitter will not die between now and Friday. I base my prediction in part on this Wall Street Journal story that says Twitter is worth $7 billion.

P.S.: Follow me @timmytyper. Gotta stay ahead of Zac.

P.P.S.: Krista will be along in a minute with a story about Councilwoman Angela Hunt and the power of Twitter.
