Twitter to Remain Free, Business Model Still Unknown
I love the response to the recent Twitter business model buzz on the Twitter blog:
However, it’s important to note that whatever we come up with, Twitter will remain free to use by everyone—individuals, companies, celebrities, etc. What we’re thinking about is adding value in places where we are already seeing traction, not imposing fees on existing services. We are still very early in the idea stage and we don’t have anything to share just yet despite a recent surge in speculation.
All illustrated with a press clippings image. I wonder how big this one will be on Techmeme?
