I think saying that Twitter was useless because they turned off some features during WWDC is a drastic over reaction.

What does Twitter do?

It tells me what my friends are doing right now. It did that perfectly.

Everything else is gravy.

Agreed, they've turned off so much functionality (view replies, archives, statistics, limited API calls, etc) that it is basically down or at least unusable in its current form. I suppose they are motivated to have good uptime stats, but it is crippled in its current state and basically useless.
