With Twitter's new API addition, here is an opportunity for many extra applications to be built off the Twitter back-end . Twitter user names are in effect keywords used pro these applications built on the Twitter platform and Twitter user name squatting is happening. The question is, how will these recent businesses monetize and how will Twitter itself monetize:

The power in any advertising-supported website, publication, TV show, etc, is community (readers, viewers, listeners, etc). Build a great service, make people to use it and you can at the same time send out pin pointed ads to those twitter-users. Illustration 1: Have a Twitter user name for Knicks (NBA,New York City Basketball Team). The public add that user as their pal the Knicks user name pushes out any Knicks news the minute it happens! Ditto on sports scores if a Knicks game is going on, it'll send out the score during the game to keep you alerted, if you wish for to be. If you can persuade 10,000 Knicks fans on your listing so there for you can either:

1) Set an ad in any empty space at the end of your 140-character messages i.e. Drink an ice cold, refreshing Pepsi.

2) Transmit out an advertisement each 10th or 50th (whatever you gather to be OK with your users) twitter. Like so, I could receive 10 twitters of news announcements, and the 11th is an advertisement pro Grey Goose vodka.
subsequently options

3) Pay Per Twitter Messages, If at hand was a user name called NYCtechJobs, every person looking for a tech job in New York City could be a friend of this catalog, and stay notified instantly of any new New York City tech jobs. Where would individuals jobs come from? Originally possibly just from Craigs List, Yahoo jobs, Executive Jobs, etc but so therefor say you "control" 2,000 users that are the pals-followers of “New York City techJobs, that means you have 2,000 prospective tech employees in the New York City area. A company would be keen on to induce their latest tech position out to those folks, so they can discover a hire like so, they go to a web page you have setup, and they are able to create a message up to 140 characters (likely include a URL to full position details) with selected details on the vacancy. You can charge the employer for posting this.

Ditto with an inventory (user name) like LAfurniture. Public could recompense to broadcast their message to all of the pals of LAfurniture.

4) Charge pro access to your Twitter messages.Your user name can be confidential and only your friends can view your twitters. Hence, if you had valuable information,you could have a subscription based service where you charge $X for folks to be your pal, and there for they would have access to your twitters. Hence, a star could charge for this (or a newspaper might do this to give you access to the news first ) or some blogger that finds online shopping deals could hurl them to you basically, if the user wanted to be in the know for whatever offering, they'd shell out $X for access (per week or month). Note: You'd have to verify their subscriptions (and if they haven't paid for the month, you'd remove them as a pal from your Twitter account).

5) Commissions on user purchases ,Setup a service that allows users to buy products through this. User would need to setup an account with you with their credit card (or PayPal info, or a deposit into this proposed payment service) stored. I imagine a user could be browsing Wired magazine and be able to quickly pay for a subscription for $10 by ripping out their cell phone, Twittering a code like d good buy wired, with a confirmation coming back to the user and them approving the confirmation perhaps using a password, so therefor the transaction occurring.

The biggest question on every one's minds is what Evan Williams(creator of twitter) is thinking. They're opening up their back-end to allow the development of applications on the Twitter platform (which I think is real smart, for the reason people are going to build helpful applications for Twitter users ,and everybody will be using Twitter in a number of functions more often) but will Evan plan to charge these companies that are building apps? Will Evan not aspire these apps monetizing themselves? How is Evan planning to monetize Twitter or will he put up for sale and leave that to a

Yahoo/Microsoft/AOL to figure out how to extract importance out of the massive user base (like his sale of Blogger to Google)? I don't think Evan knows the answers quite yet,he's just focused on building a splendid application for users
