This article make an assumption about twitter, that it has a technological leads in scaling things and doing it at x message a minutes. I used to think that as well.

Until i saw Weibo's numbers, which in terms of a message per minutes volume is much higher then twitter.

So while web tech and scaling is hard, both are not fundamental problem to Apple's web tech. It properly has more to do with its internal culture on Web services.
