Would you pay to Twitter?

Twitter is just Facebook status update.... Whooo whooo whooo Facebook!!!

Internet has become our lives and is a great thing, but Facebook, Myspace and Twitter can be dangerous especially to the vulnerable.
I don't use any of the 3 and wouldn't.

no. If I have to pay to tweet, I will just find something else to use instead.

Yea right, I am going to pay for being annoyed by vapid valueless drivel. As a socialization tool it is only decent....most of the traffic is just idiot speak.

NOPE. Would never be worth it.

Sure I would pay ....

Twitter is great and if it costs money then ..... why not.

I'm just suprised that it took so long before they decided to charge something.

To tweet is to be a nuisance. It's no better than white noise, so people should be ashamed of themselves for not spending their time on more important things. Everyday the american public proves themselves to be more shallow and moronic, and once they are caught up in the vortex of what's popular they continue to embarrassingly convince themselves that something is cool; and now, twitter wants you to pay for wasting your own time. What are we becoming?

Please just make twitter go away. And the followers of twitter too.

NO!!!

No, I still don't understand Twitters appeal. It's like the lazy man's facebook.

Nope

3 years from now it will be "what's Twitter"

It's the opposite – I would need to get paid to twitter.

For twitter to be a successful business tool it is so important to weed out the 40 or 50% (and growing) which are bots. I think I've found a way to clean out most with websitedevel but it is time consuming.

I would welcome extra optional tools from Twitter – just a matter of how much???

Just like everybody else.., NO !.. Mike in Montana

Everyone pooh-poohing Twitter obviously doesn't quite get it. That's fine. But imagine asking a question and getting responses from all over the world within minutes. It's magic, and it's not all about vanity and coolness. Sure, there's a subset of people who don't use it very well (and are the types of people most commenters have been describing), but once you learn how to harness the power, it's invaluable. That said, it's a very valuable tool to some businesses, and they should be willing to pay for sure. Why would the average user have to pay? They're not profiting. At least the people using Twitter for personal purposes won't have to pay. 🙂

Pay for Twitter? Not a chance.

In response to Girl Genius, Message Boards have been doing the same thing for years. They leave a trail of information unlike the twitter that is only for the moment. Totally just a fad for people with nothing better to do...

Start charging to twitter and do it soon because the next big thing is just waiting to take advantage of the opening. Twitter will start charging and then fade away as free competitors step over themselves to fill the void. It's about free communication, idiots, not loyalty to some software company.

NO. I don't even use it now.
Signed up but already use Facebook.

Not a chance.

I wouldn't pay a single penny but I know lots of people who would.

No, Internet will stay free or people will stop using it.

I would pay something, but only if it remained interesting – and it might not be interesting if either most of the Twitterers went away or if all that were left were people who could afford to pay.

So, I believe the idea of charging for extra services is the only way to go.
Good luck, Twitter folks, in finding a path that works for you and for all of us, too. I'm rooting for our success in finding a new path to participatory journalism, being a part of history.

There's no question Twitter is in dire needs of a revenue model.

Seems unlikely that people would pay, if that was something imposed. There has in fact been an announcement that MySpace may be turning into a 'paid-model'; clear signs of a slump! We think so at TheMusicVoid anyway – http://bit.ly/6ZoG4e

Getting to the the basis of a problem starts with figuring out the the premise. While could seem ambigious but many hard times start from the premise, not the conclusion.
