I’d be interested to see the results of a poll entitled:
“How much would you be willing to pay per month for 1000/unlimited Twitter texts?”
Not getting text @ replies either renders the ‘communication utility’ much less useful or is forcing me to keep Twhirl open the whole time to actually have conversations.
I’d also be interested to hear what workarounds people are using?
The combination of “it would have been a lot more effect to build that option [premium SMS]” and “business model, what’s that?” is hilarious!
Hello Twitter. Sell SMS traffic for non-US markets. This will help you make money.
