So much pessimism in the comments about the viability of Twitter as a business model. I've heard multiple sources (Chris Sacca, Ron Conway) not only say that Twitter has perhaps the best monetization opportunity of any web 2.0 company but dump as much money as they can into the stock. I've advertised on Twitter for quite a while, and the returns destroy Facebook and Adsense.
Advertising makes a lot of money if the audience is big enough. Twitter's audience is huge, connected, well sorted, and interested.
