Inspired by this post, here's my list of 10 things Apple should NOT do with Twitter:
1. Twitter support in iChat - Twitter used to have an IM address from
which you could post. This, presumably, will be brought back later.
2. Using Twitter for RSS - Because RSS isn't...what?
3. Tweet new photos from iPhone - Upload to MobileMe would be cool, but Twitter apps are like the Hello World of iPhone apps
4. Tweet new photos from iPhoto - No reason this can't be done by a third party
5. Twitter contacts in Addressbook - A twitter app could access your addressbook
6.
Baking Twitter sign-in into iPhone - Why would Apple build their
service around only one provider, with a lot of recorded downtime, when
there are free alternatives?
7. Read tweets on AppleTV - Just run boxee. You'll be much happier :)
8. Twitter search built into Safari - search.twitter.com can be loaded into Firefox's search bar. Safari doesn't support this?!
9.
Tweet songs you're listening to on iTunes or iPhone - There are third
party apps for iTunes that do this, but for the iPhone it would require
"baked-on" Twitter support, or background processes, which it does not
allow just yet
10. Suggested songs based on most-tweeted songs - Because we all want Britney Spears' collector's edition greatest hits?
