Gillmor Gang: Moe, Larry, and Curly

The Gillmor Gang ? Robert Scoble, Dan Farber, Kevin Marks, and Steve Gillmor ? have a lot to work with this week: Instagram, a Google+ redesign, and Ann Romney joining Twitter. But if Larry is Larry, who are Moe and Curly? @dbfarber makes a good case for Twitter owning the realtime media; if you make it on Twitter, you can make it anywhere. We don't know Moe's business model, but who cares. That leaves Zuckerberg as Curly, the intellectual whose empire keeps growing no matter what mistakes he seems to make. In fact, those mistakes usually turn out to be ephemeral. Lose trust with overwhelming growth, buy the most phatic startup and its 30 million users. Facebook is betting only a few will bolt, and where are they gonna go anyway? The Three Stooges are beating each other up, but what they're really doing is keeping Microsoft boxed out of the social party. Nyuk nyuck nyuck.
