Funnily enough that's exactly what many full time microbloggers have been asking from Xitter for years. I always thought it was a silly idea and if you want to make money from your tweets print and sell them as a book like any other self-important celebrity or become a ghost writer for other people's Xitty microblogs. If you're that good, people will pay, surely.

People made careers out of tweeting?

I had no idea that was possible.
