Jason, Tyler... read the first lines of the first message: "Please help us : http://bit.ly/hub4twitter the more people in there, the more comments, the more we can convince *Twitter to use ours or even host their own*. This has just been wayyyy to long."
Obviously, using ours can be a nice proof of concept for no work (the problems today are more EULA related than tech related) and since our hubs are fully "open", they can export all the data at any time, if they want to go down the route of implementing theirs. We even offer the ability of using CNAMEs, which would make the switch to theirs (or another provider) fully transparent. I think everybody wins if they decide to implement theirs or use ours : an open protocol for realtime that Twitter wouldn't be using would still be a 3 legged horse, no matter what. We (Superfeedr) bet on that horse, I want it to have 4 legs.
