It's crazy to try and assess success so early on - sales figures will take some time to filter through and so on. Just quietly, I think this is a great and daring move.

I think he's being overly conservative in his estimate. In three years at the outside Twitter will be as "de rigueur" as Facebook is today.

I now know twitter has moved from the realm of 'niche' because it was on Rove on Sunday night... Twitter is now aligned with the likes of Hamish and Andy, Kevin Rudd, Peter Helliar... My next tweet will have to be 'Say Hi to your mum for me...' heh Sign of things to come, but not sure of the value play as yet.
