Summary: Tech Crunch overhyped <i>another</i> rumor to get traffic.<p>I was tolerant of TC till these last few weeks. But this makes about 5 TC posts in under 2 weeks that have just been a waste of space. Now I am adding them to my HN (and other sites) block list and removing them from my feeds.<p>Personally Im not interested in sensationalist media :(
Yea -- I found Tech Crunches news very alarming and against the grain. I was at Twitter's office last Friday and their coo told us four times that they were excited to be growing, and to "check out their job board."<p>Additionally, Biz Stone was hosting the daily, catered lunch at Twitter and the team was having a blast. They were building rapport and looked pumped for the future. They also mentioned they'll be moving into a new office soon. A bigger one.<p>Why would they give off this vibe, hire 15+ more positions, and then turn around to sell off to google. Twitter is in it for the long run.
