You decide how often they twitter magpie-tweets. Once every five tweets is their default but you can choose to have one magpie-tweet per 20 tweets or 1 tweet – 1 magpie-tweet. It depends entirely on you.

    Very interesting, we’ll see how this turns out.

    I’m not too hopeful about this, but it’d be good if twitter can finally be monetized!

    I hope it turns out good. So far, people have not been very receptive though, so it’s not looking good.

    This will not work and will in fact back fire as this is a form of spamming your followers, which in turn will possibly start to unfollow you as a result.

    yup… it’s not a good idea… the word “spam” comes to mind…

    How is giving your followers relative information spam? If you are a vegan blogger and you send a tweet about the new Angus burger at a steak house then you are spamming. If you send a tweet about a new veggie fast food place then you are adding value to your community. I agree with others that disclosure is key, but if the message ads value then it’s not spam. Why is it fine to watch Tiger Woods sell cars in a commercial but we question a Tweeter sending a much more targeted and relevant tweet to their followers?
