Twitter settles on Revenue from Ads

Twitter announced this week it will begin accepting advertising. Best Buy and Starbucks are among the first companies in line to have their messages placed on the site, although it remains to be seen if people will click through.
Which begs the question: Does that even matter?
Already the buzz around Twitter-ads has reached epic proportions, with thousands upon thousands of Tweets and ReTweets about them. This exposure alone seems worth the price of admission....

@DennisCMichael So...they're going to start putting ads in Twitter. I haven't had much motivation to participate here...and now I have even less.
