Potential Shift in Business Model for Twitter

There is a suggestion to split Twitter into two companies in a private market scenario, with one focusing on the current business model and monetization strategies while the other operates as a services company licensing access to the social graph. The second company could serve as an open protocol layer allowing others to build on top of Twitter's social graph, fostering innovation and a more open ecosystem for developers and users.
