When they do that there will be an obvious targeted audience for relevant ads. I have blogged and micro-blogged about this for months. The best description of what Twitter, FriendFeed or any other Social Media site can do is in the post I wrote about Twitter Advertising. I linked that post to this comment to make it easy to find.

It will result in a gaming technique like SEO is today with google. You can pay to be on top, or you can have content, tags, etc that make you relevant in the search results. I guess they would expand the existing SEO careerists and open the doors for more demand which is good. Google seems to get enough revenue from a similar model. It would be interesting to see what happens if twitter search is indexed into other search engines like google. That would reduce the value of paying for twitter ads (more overhead). I guess the same could be true for Microsoft (if they bought twitter and integrated search with their results). Interesting points… It will result in a gaming technique like SEO is today with google.
