I admit that every business owner will have a twitter enthusiast in their business.

This brings a whole new element to understanding some sort of return on time spent using the platform. Indexing content from Twitter is a great idea.

This will put Twitter in a much more reliable, timely, and up to date position. Thanks!

A plan is important but to some extent you also just have to jump in and learn. Twitter search is becoming more interesting, but it has some limitations to overcome, our own search guru Suzan shared some of her thoughts and I'd be interested to know what you think: http://www.gottaquirk.com/2009/05/07/twitter-search-is-mutating-now-indexing-links/ I agree that companies should certainly be on Twitter – if they don’t claim their brand name there’s a good chance someone else will, which is quite a loss.

Both organizations and individuals will be better able to establish, maintain, track and protect their brands. Though we all fear change, I think this just might be a good change.

Here are my thoughts. 1) I could see this helping people find out who tweeted a URL first, and this in time might be able to help divide the true first movers of a topic from the the retweets and followers. Maybe a ranking system of twitter users and topics can be created. So, I log onto twitter advanced search and type in "nate is gay" and you are the expert on the topic nate is gay cause you have tweeted the more pages discussing it. 2) There new URL index + tweets could help detect how a story moves viraly. That information would help PR people better plan campaigns online because they can pin-point how to distribute them more appropriately. For example, does some one tweet a story from the company blog first, or a PRWeb release? Then after the first tweet where is it going.
