the article on leaving comments is a down to earth, personal account of getting more traffic out of commenting on stuff you find worth reading. thanks

It would make sense for twitter to get some return on investment by getting corporates to pay for the service. I do feel that they need to take care of their base, and keep their service free for joe public, otherwise their popularity will surely wane.

Wow I never new comments could be so beneficial, its really inspiring to see that from one comment a site got an increase of almost 100% of traffic just from one comment. If its a good comment, Im sure it will draw a lot of attention and you will get a lot of traffic from it.

“the power of a comment” touches a very important subject – when commenting you’re not only encouraging other bloggers but may also accidentaly find couple new readers. And that’s extremaly important especialy for smaller sites.

I’m not really sure about whether or not it’d be a good idea for Twitter to charge its businesses. I have found Twitter to be valuable in terms of driving traffic to my site, but I don’t feel its enough, at least as of yet, to charge (if they’d consider it a small business). I’m also not sure of its value to bigger corps like Dell, at least not yet…

I’m interested to see what direction they take it.

The day that twitter starts charging business users will be their death nail in my opinion.

I agree but I understand they do need to make money somehow.
