No ads, no sales. Twitter has millions of Twitters, why not use what you have. It's free ain't it. Somebody's got to pay for the service.

If there are two mega-companies that could convince themselves that this sort of thing is the answer, these are them. I thought the whole Bing thing was just to pressure Yahoo to capitulate.
