[LINK] Twitter: The poor man's e-mail system

[Robin Stephens]

The following quote from Google CEO Eric Schmidt:

"Do they fundamentally evolve as sort of a note phenomenon, or do they
fundamentally evolve to have storage, revocation, identity, and all
the other aspects that traditional email systems have?"

Ummm. When did traditional email systems have revocation?

The only one I know that has revocation is outlook with exchange server.

Gmail does not have revocation.

Does this mean Google staff/management do not eat their own dog food?
