Twitter Buzz Worth $250,000?
Companies can’t run ads on Twitter (yet), but in five years, a prime spot on the micro-blogging service’s “suggested users” list might be worth well over a million dollars.
That’s what Mahalo founder Jason Calacanis told TechCrunch, after offering Twitter’s founders $250,000 to secure a place on the list for the next two years.
The list is a new feature that’s presented to people when they sign up for a Twitter account.
Being on it can send some accounts upwards of 10,000 followers per day, a gift that Dave Winer agrees “might be worth a lot of money.”
But which kinds of companies stand to gain the most from those followers?
