Can you make money with Twitter?
Written by Darren Westerway - http://bit.ly/lwbYYTwitter is one of those entities that can be whatever you want it to be, so the question of can you make money with Twitter? provides a simple answer of "Yes" if you do thingsright. It may be of course, that you simply feel inspired to reveal your latest activities tothe world and literally respond to Twitter's question of "What are you doing now?" but if you want to take things down a different path and apply it as a constructive marketingapplication, you can. Mind you, there are plenty of people who consider Twitter to be ameans of time wasting, but that is the whole point. Twitter is what you make it. You"own" your little piece of it.Let's focus on responding to the question of making money with Twitter though.

Therewill be failed attempts along the way, but some WILL get through and establish amarketing settlement somewhere out there in the wild. Just like early pioneers, the wayto get through is to have determination, grit ones teeth, put setbacks behind you andfocus on doing what you set out to do and make that income.
