Is Twitter Vulnerable to Marketer Attack?

Thats the title of an interesting post on Mashable.

Apparently Mark Rizzin takes a dim view of John Reese’s involvement with Twitter and paints “ebook salesman” in a negative light.

IMHO I think he is way off base.

Fortunately for those of us on Twitter currently, as studies plainly show, we’re nigh-immune to the shady tactics of those who would like to use the system for profit whilst at the same time adding no value.

Seems to me his twit & link baiting post to a blog page with around 20 ads is clearly a “use of the system for profit” with over one twit per his 9,000+ followers…

I wonder Is Twitter Vulnerable To Blogger Attack?

I would say yes.
