		<description>small is the new big!  :)
i&#039;m glad i was going through your older posts as i&#039;m currently looking into the forces of creative destruction and how &quot;they&quot; come to bear on contemporary business entities...essentially whether companies should willingly split themselves up into smaller entities to position for more growth.  
it&#039;s a pretty big project since i want to avoid looking like an ass, but it&#039;s good to see that the general paradigm is shifting toward accepting the possiblity that the smaller is better. 
of course, as concerns internet companies, i&#039;m not sure companies like twitter/photobucket/etc should overly rely on ad revenue as their sole source of income.  it&#039;s simply not sustainable since it&#039;s mostly &quot;vaporous&quot; and extremely vulnerable to competitive forces; meaning, as soon as another, better competitor comes along the company is doa since there was no real revenue stream...goog for example has the masses supporting it now but that&#039;s obviously not enough to sustain growth--and they know that, considering the massive amounts of functionality expansions they&#039;ve been undergoing. 
 cheers!</description>
