I think Twitter has been over hyped as the way for celebrities to get some attention. I have been disappointed with using Twitter as a way to build a brand or product recognition. At this point I am finding that Facebook gives me a better return even though I have t pay for the advertising there. They allow such pinpointing of their users that it's pretty easy to hit exactly who we want. I cant' seem to get similar results with Twitter. I realize that this is an old post but I just found it.

Personally Twitter as a sales tool has been a huge dispappointment. It is a somewhat useful tool for creating buzz around a brand. IMO, it is very much like the early days of web development where it put more on the bottom line using it for things other than sales. Problem is with the economy the way it is business is looking for marketing they can literally take to the bank... and the best way to that on twitter... coupons and deals!
