Twitter and Business
July 25, 2009
Short honk: “Twitter Offers Clues to the Puzzled” in Silicon Valley Blog provided an interesting tidbit to the goose’s bill. The comment that caught my attention was:
We need to do a better job of explaining ourselves to people who hear about us and then have no idea what do to.” Part of that effort is Twitter 101, a guide aimed at the business users the company may try to monetize some day.
Another monetization prognostication. In today’s economy, make money and take money. Promising revenues is easy. Generating revenues is tough. I just learned that SearchMe is a gone goose. A niche publisher has told staff that it is a four day week, folks. Twitter needs to crank the dough meter in my opinion. Businesses may not be the place to look for cash. Too much work to make the system pay off unless the businesses like the newly unemployed or the riffed folks in New Jersey have extra time on their hands.
