Yeah, this is just becoming more and more of a problem, now big sellers are using twitter to market. I cannot believe it dates way back then though.

This will crush the very heart of the collaborative web! No, not really, but it sure is annoying. :)

feed up with spam? http://spam.alltop.com is for you ;)

Great article, but as Twitter becomes ever more popular it will be harder to fight this. Magpie tempts us with cash and I'm sure there are more on the way. High profile twitters could get away with a little advertising but for the rest of us auto tweeting should be an ostracise-able offence.

Martin, hopefully this trend won't be gathering much momentum. I think people quickly realize that they lose followers when they agree to these types of arrangements. I was looking at the WikiHow page and one of the examples they gave was a link to this page called How To Touch a Girl - http://www.wikihow.com/Touc... Can you imagine that link showing up as one of your tweets???

I've seen this here too: http://www.wikihow.com/Add-... It's no fun seeing these things being churned out automatically.
