I agree that Google's track record on improving the earlier acquisitions you mention is sketchy at best. However, it's important to bear in mind that they have excelled in developing their core business. Twitter's main problem right now is scalability. They really have dropped the ball. And Google has the know-how and cash to address that problem specifically. Imagine if, in the early days, Google's servers had crashed with the frequency that Twitter's do. Google would have succumbed to competitors fast. So Google could help Twitter address its scalability issues. But until a proven revenue model emerges, it's questionable whether the search giant will want to take on Twitter's problems. Good post Aaron, thanks.

Otherwise, good post, and I agree - Google purchasing Twitter would be terrible for Twitter. Why did you feel the need to include the paragraph about Microsoft? Entirely irrelevant.
