Some of you probably remember the days when Google emerged as the leader in search. Overnight, a whole new breed of services emerged and used it a their main growth engine.
From SEO advisers to meta-searchers to browser add-ons, you name it.
Today, with Twitter, there’s a similar burgeoning breed of tools created around the micro-blogging leader.
That’s what I define as the Twitter Economy.

Will they succeed or fail? Will they boost Twitter or hinder it?
That’s what I will analyze in future articles.
Stay tuned.
