A Twitter Tease

By Mark Evans | Published: September 19, 2008

There’s big news from Twitter today in a blog post entitled “Changes Afoot”.

Could it be a new business plan? A way for Twitter to generate revenue and justify the private equity it’s received. Could it be a corporate version of Twitter (a la Yammer) where it could make some dough-reh-me?

Nope, it’s a new design. The ironic part is if Twitter hadn’t done a blog post, I probably would have never known it had a new look given I use Twhirl and TwitterDeck as opposed to Twitter.com.

From my experience with Twitterific on the iPod Touch, Twitter could easily introduce advertising into the service (whether as display ads on Twitter.com or intermittently within messages), and probably not offend the Twitterati enough to make them consider alternatives.
