If you're as pro-Twitter as I am, you've probably heard a lot of your Twitter-hater friends give some pretty crazy excuses for why they won't use Twitter. I myself have some particularly close friends who simply refuse to Tweet - and they're always making excuses for why they won't do it.

This may not be a sign of a potential economic upswing, but it's surprisingly positive financial info nonetheless: Twitter is profitable all of a sudden. And it's all thanks to Google. For months the way Twitter works financially has been a bit of a mystery since its amazing popularity would've launched it into some profit-making scheme much sooner, or so the Web had thought. But Biz Stone repeatedly denied Twitter would be moving into a Web-advertising mode--which would have seemed the easiest way for Twitter to earn cash--and has been touting business extras like analytic tools as Twitter's road to profitability, over the long term.

Quel type d'agence est légi
La stratégie digitale ressemble un peu à la quête du Graal et de nombreuses agences se positionnent afin d'expliquer qu'elles sont sans doute les mieux placer pour accompagner les annonceurs.

Beyond the dippy lingo, the idea that something intelligent, something worthy of mindshare, might occur in the space of 140 characters — Twitter’s parameters were set by what would fit in a text message on a phone — seems unlikely.
With its 140 character limit, Twitter is all about brevity . But if you think the same shouldn’t apply for a job application, well then, “you’re done.” This Craigslist job listing has some interesting rules, to say the least.
