readwriteweb.com — These first ads probably aren't going to bring in enough cash to fuel a micro-app acquisition spree by Twitter, but this is the first clear public indication of one way the company is bringing in revenue.

Twitter may very well s**t gold one day, but that doesn't stop it from sucking. f**k Twitter

I find it hilarious that everyone is complaining about ads on Twitter.. by commenting on digg which is a site littered with far more ads than Twitter.

Oh no, not adverts on a FREE service...

I use Adblock on 98% of the sites I visit but it's disabled on my favorites. Ads are the only source of income to some sites especially blogs. Symbiosis so to speak.

I'm glad they are making SOME money now. I love Twitter and have been wondering how long the service would survive without any income at all. @audiobookreview

That was what I was going to do! Incidentally there were no geocaches anywhere along the route where I was driving anyway, but it would have still been worth a look - it's prompted me to keep a local copy of all of the geocaches within a 50 mile radius :)
