Good day gentlemen !

As I see , we have here discussions on
various methods of making money . I’m a rich person, and
I’m in one theme for a long time –
it is a high yield investment program. To tell the truth, I do it successfully.
I guess this topic is ambiguous , and it may raise a flame.
If I fumbled , please, admins of this forum, transfer my posting to the correct place.

But the anyone who are interested stable high income please may visit visit my web site http://www.theinvestblog.com .

In many respects I think all micro-blogging apps are over hyped-they seem to be a play-toy for the Tech Community without a real appeal to the general public they may just become a widget on the desktop, spitting out nothing but a head lines no deck no real content-i think it is easier to monetize 70 well written articles from A Seth Godin than 140 “Character’s !” from people like myself-HEH

@David Worthington, Twitter does not have to move to a revenue model any faster than it’s VC’s and management want it to. It’s their cash, they are extremely extremely smart, very rich and are experts in their fields.

If they want to concentrate their resources in expanding Twitter’s reach before they implement one of the many revenue generating models available to them then that’s great(and their choice).

You trying to tell them how to maximize their returns on capital is very ignorant.

I will say this…for all of the attention it’s getting,Twitter is a seriously limited app. I think that within those limits, a lot can be done, but it is not really worthy of all the hype.

To David, Harry and all commentors, thank-you very much for enlightening me on Twitter’s value. It really helps to read what others are saying, it widens my scope and inserts some sense or logic into this new form of communication. I have been beginning to wonder what the hell I got addicted to it for. Twitter is addicting. It steals valuable time away from my day, I see a Failwhale pop up constantly during heavy use and the tweets are full of SEO and MLM fiends trying to make millions off the internet. I am an artist, I like to make posts about art in the world and show my latest art and discuss philosophy of life. That’s just me, I use Twitter to hope to connect with people on a lighthearted basis and learn some technology or bit of news in the world. Twitter has become a porthole to see the world from our monitor and to keep a pulse on the current events. Beyond that, it is a place to chatter even if it is what color underwear you put on today. Now, I feel silly saying that, but the users of Twitter don’t give a damn about the implications of what they said does to others. It’s a form of expression to many and it’s a form of seeking money to businesses plus it’s a form of helping with valuable advice to many also. I do think Twitter is a pulse rate of people’s thoughts and if you read them, you get a feel of how the world is doing today. I think I will go check it out right now, I need my fix!

Janet, “tweets are almost always approximately as interesting as the people who post them.” Word! I retweeted it: http://twitter.com/CoBPEZ =)
