How do I know this? They tried to recruit me last week. For the record, I also blew off Google recruiters a while back but at least I have done a lot of development with Google APIs. I have never written one line of Microsoft code and have no interest in starting now. My resume clearly reflects this.

If Twitter and Facebook try to become more like FriendFeed they will lose sight of their original focus and open the door to new competitors. Without solid business models I doubt either will risk such a move.
