Yahoo! News - Twitter to seek revenue from businesses by Reuters: Yahoo! Tech

Speaking of commercialization and deteriorating signal-to-noise ratios…

The company is preparing to offer commercial accounts in which corporations and other types of businesses pay a fee to receive an enhanced version of Twitter, a free service that allows people to send short, 140-character text messages to their network of friends.

"We think there will be opportunities to provide services to commercial entities that help them get even more value out of Twitter. If these services are valuable to companies, we think they may want to pay for them," Biz Stone, co-founder of Twitter, said in an e-mail sent to Reuters.
