This is how twitter will try to make money, founder @biz declare today their long awaited business model. It make sense. Sponsored or paid tweets seems to be a good way of making money rather then flashing ad banners and other stuff ( that you can think in your mind)
on Official Twitter blog @Biz writes
We hope you’ll share in our enthusiasm as today we unveil a simple service we’re calling Promoted Tweets. It’s non-traditional, it’s easy, and it makes a ton of sense for Twitter. Our COO Dick Costolo will be talking about this much anticipated offering in detail today at the AdAge Digital conference. Tomorrow at Chirp, both Dick and our fearless leader Evan Williams will further discuss this program and what it means for the Twitter ecosystem.

Amazing. I just wrote about this topic earlier today (as well as a variety of other categories of social media’ers). Advertisers will never stop allocating their money, it will just follow the users’ eyeballs.
Shanker, Thanks for sharing this about tweeter, I didn’t know they started doing sponsored tweets but it is sure good to know now, I hope this business model will make them money as well as for us internet marketers.
Have a great weekend,
Tim
