    its a great search engine and source of instant news...*prays for a positive tweet from her "new macbook pro" saved search on tweetdeck*

    Im not really so convinced on the "networking" though compared to other sites

    Good for what? :confused:

    If you are referring to monetization benefits out of it, I am yet to figure out how to go about it and find it really waste of time... at least as of now! :(

    Having said that, it does provide a good platform for people to keep in touch with each other and share their daily experiences in tits bits... instantly! :)

    Regards,

    Thanks! RightMan

    Depends on the person trying to monetize. I personally find it good for traffic and made some good money with it through cpa so it is up to the person using it.

    Yes...but from my point of view more as real-time news & search engine rather than social networking

    I'd find it a lot more useful if they extended the amount of text space for tweets.

    Twitter is a great way for a website that has followers to create an additional way of contact and sense of community.

    Anything that gets that kind of traffic on a daily basis is going to be good for something. Asking a vague question like that is easy...Of course it has its good points. It was a nice relief from things especially when facebook changed all their stuff up. Its cool to see whats trending too not to mention how easy it to get news. The more popular it gets, the easier and better Twitter will get.

    I have many autoblogs that do great with Twitter traffic. If you build some automated scripts to follow and unfollow you'll bring in some quick and easy traffic.

    I haven't used twitter for advertisement, but I don't normally check other people's tweets specially when know that they are advertising something. BtW , I do check those tweets which interests me. So, it can be a good one if the ad is something that can excite the users.
