I agree. I think that Twitter works best when the users truly embrace it for what it is – a conversation tool. Therefore, it is my opinion that it works best when a small company is represented on Twitter by at least several key members of the team – not just a lone company image. Of course, there are always exceptions but having multiple “faces” to the company utilizing the service, it can truly generate a “personal feel” that is inherently very, very attractive to most people. This personal touch will help ensure a much better chance at helping the community bond with your brand.

Totally agree. Are we seeing the transition of Twitter to something monetised, not unlike MySpace and YouTube. But are we mourning the inevitable? As Twitter grows, should we not expect manipulation of its essential functions for profit?
