Excellent write up and a good analogy. Football and webernets combined, YES!
Great list. I've been using twitter for a while but was unfamiliar with several of those.
Losing my main excuse to not build all Flash sites makes this a bad day. :(
This is a terrific find! So much great information there. I agree - it would be better if it were video, but I'm not going to complain.
Wow what a great collection of information. It will take me a while to dig through that.
Ok I'm going to keep at this for a month myself.
How about some of you twitter geniuses post the some good feeds to follow???
As simple as twitter is, I think it has two problems. Its too pointless and too cumbersome.
Its too pointless in that most people don't have enough important stuff going on that it makes them worth following. I love my friends, but I don't care what they are doing right now. I certainly don't want to know everything that some guy half way around the world is doing. I think an exception to this might be a site that uses twitter to announce special promos. Think w00t but instead of launching the special at the same time everyday, it launches randomly and is announced via twitter. I don't know why you would feel the need to run it through twitter (since you could build your own little setup) but I could understand that.
I think twitter is too cumbersome in that it takes too much effort for what it is. There are some things that make it easier (I have used it in conjunction with JOTT).
Overall I think its kind of gimmicky. I also think that some bloggers hype things up just to try and build another channel to market through. I can't blame them for that, but I think that may be the case a lot of the time.

How could they leave out:

I think there could be some wiggle room on the link part of this. I guess it depends on how the original contract is setup.
If I owned a network of sites and said that I would place links to the customer site on my network for X amount, I really don't see anything wrong with that.
On the other hand, I can also see how someone with low ethics might sell a client service, then turn around and sell them links to a bunch of sites that they own. Essentially double dipping from the client.
