Well, that, and the fact that you have a huge number of people that are going to try it for a bit, and then forget about it. I'd like to see the numbers over the next six months.

People are already 'liking' things on Facebook and Instagram so it isn't as if people are unfamiliar and will forget to use it. Some people who used it as a bookmarking took might not use it anymore, but everyone else can now just transport the mentality of liking things to Twitter too.
