Unfortunately, "solid business" and "getting acquired" are probably inversely correlated these days. Is Twitter a solid business?

Obviously the news says they've had offers, but just as obviously no offers have turned into acquisitions. The many intelligent people who work there and have invested in the company think Twitter has at least the promise of a solid business.
