One thing you can take away is the resilience of a network effect. Twitter as an application is laughably easy to build. But it's very hard to kill thanks to the massive audience and the individual connections.

The only way Twitter will die is if the network effect is killed, or somehow used against Twitter to create a competing platform.

I think parts of Twitter may be easy to build in isolation, but the entire platform as a whole is certainly not easy by any means and would be very expensive to construct.
