I'm not even sure what Twitter is, I hear it talked about all the time on the radio etc.

OK...Off to Google to do some Twitter research.

I've been researching it the last few weeks, and it does appear to be the next marketing giant. I did a lot of marketing on MySpace a while back, but now it's full of kids with no money. If you have a website, there are lots of places to post blogs, tweets, etc for marketing your products.

And I agree that Twitter could bring a lot of the alternative eBay sites to the surface. A lot of us have had a little success on the other sites, but more exposure would help.

:D

Twitter is great for generating fast traffic to websites, especially blogs.

It's a key tool in traffic generation for my autoblogs.

eBay isn't really active on Twitter yet, I wonder if they will leverage this marketing tool heavily in the future.

Well...I signed up for Twitter, just a personal account.

And Guess What? Found a X-Girlfriend and we have been in contact since the 1st day of joining Twitter. She's flying out from Seattle on Thursday for a 2 week stay.

Should be FUN?

I signed up the other day but haven't taken the time to figure it all out yet. I can see the potential just need to capitalize on it.
