I was doing some cleaning upon my twitter lists today and I began to notice more and more spam accounts. Heck, there are event twitterspam, and stop twitter spam sites. Give, we all knew this would happen eventually, but the concept is illogical. Micro posting spam is about as effective as e-mail spam ... it gets caught and you get booted. Moreover users, I would think, would tun off your feed, report you, and then you get booted.
On the other hand, I have seen some nice uses of marketing via twitter. Product updates, information, and insider goodies all are appearing on twitter seducing potential users to join the stream and reap the rewards. As it is still a relatively small community, comparatively, I think there is a lot of intimacy and authenticity here and that is why I am taking the time to clean out my lists and make sure I am really getting the updates I.
The menace of spam is now over twitter, and it annoys me so much.
