Twitter business model

For those interested in understanding how twitter is (and will) make money..

This article shows how user growth seems the most concerning issue for the company and from investors (now that the company is public)..

In next years the user-growth potential is in the emerging markets, but there is a problem: the cost of mobile data for emerging market users whom salary cannot afford the data plan offered from mobile internet providers.

So that is the idea of twitter: creating way to access the network without paying the data plan..

Win-win situation: twitter has new users and users get internet without paying..
