Is Twitter for Twits?

So far, for the most part yes.

But, three smart people I trust are using it now, Andy Swan , Fred Wilson and Bijan Sabet . I am sure there are others, but those are people I read regularly. Andy was using it months before the nerds caught on.

I am not sure if Andy knew why he liked it, but he liked it. When it caught on in nerdville, I told him to lose the widget. It was now uncool. Since pestering him I have definately followed the conversation. It’s been useless. For the Twits using it, they are still using it wrong. Like I care where Scoble eats. He is eating all day.

The last few weeks I have been thinking it through as it pertains to quality stock market conversation. My concerns are the general message board assholes that would try and get into the braoder conversation that added no value. That looks to be easily overcome.

If I were Twitter , this is where I would start to focus now. I read this post today and James gets it .

To have 30-50 trusted stock minds twittering would be valuable to me. I am away from the market all day. I don’t trade but want to be in the loop. A new blog friend was the first person to call me on CROX’s numbers. I want Andrew on My Stock Twitter Conversation.

Twitter can make me money and now I am interested. I am sure you will tell me that Campfire and AIM will do the trick. Not for me. I hate them both. They may help me make money, but not the community at large in real time. They are also a pain in the ass w.r.t noise.

I will have it up on Wallstrip ASAP and get a MONEY making daily market conversation going. You will be banned if you tell me what or where you are eating, unless it’s FLY . Bannnned!

If you want to be part of the Wallstrip ‘Market Talk’ Twitter Community – please let me know.
