Isn't that a twitter clone?

(My point is that IMO twitter was the most useless of all the mainstream social networks until snapchat arrived.

I reached this conclusion by seing that you can get to twitter functionality from both facebook, instagram and google+ just by removing features and introducing limitations.)

I Twitter is the most honest social network. Everything is public, the end. Unlike Facebook's "privacy" settings.

When Twitter was launched Facebook didn't have a news feed and Google+ was non existent.
