I was listening to an interesting conversation about Twitter Japan. Reports are they might be starting to charge for tweets. So what I got from it is, if you want to follow a certain person and see their tweets, you will have to pay for it.

I am against this but I did start thinking about it. If you are a person in power, a celeb, leader, or influencer maybe you could. I;m the type of person who generally wont pay for little things like this, but I’m willing to bet there are tons of people who would. Think of all the teenage girls who would be willing to pay to find out what Taylor Swift is doing throughout the day. Although I know the majority of people who will read this wont agree, I want you to think more like a business person. Can you not see there is a market there.

Now the question is would one of these people be more powerful behind a pay wall or with more followers as it is now?

Thoughts?
