Twitter starts on the long road to revenue

Twitter has launched it’s “promoted tweets” advertising service, and so started the long and one suspects painful march to monetization.

It’s early days, but this was always going to have to happen – much like at some stage facebook may start looking to monetzize corporate “fanpages” more directly than just through the advertising these companies occasionally buy. Mashable has the basic details at http://bit.ly/cYvjJP.

Has anyone seen a sponsored tweet in a search result or in their feed yet? What do you think – good move or the start of the end?
