Given the state of the Twitter API & new costs it seems like many developers, small companies & organizations are throwing in the towel. It seems plausible to me, that this doesn't necessarily spell the end to the good bots or apps or feature enhancements to twitter. What if twitter itself recreates some of these things or sherlocks some aspects of these things as features? It might seem cynical or spiteful, but what should throwing in the towel look like? If you had an open source repo should you delete it? Should you try to suppress access to info from your site that describes features & benefits? Or is it too late? Or maybe it just doesn't matter at this point.
I have no skin in the game (no apps, no bots, no twitter handle any more), but this all just occurred to me while reading articles about some of the apps & tools that will most likely being going away.
