Good examples. I agree that Twitter can be a powerful tool if used properly, but I don’t like it when companies just show an rss feed from there blog. That tells me they’re not taking time to learn about what the community is all about.
I use over 80 marketing channels to promote my business and that of my clients. Just like Twitter most of them are free.
I haven’t tried Twitter yet but I can see it being marketing channel #81 before the end of the day.
Twitter has worked well for our travel site. The visitors from our “test” twitter channel stayed and engaged with the website better than normal visitors. See the case study on the blogurl(click my name).
Twitter works well as a passive marketing tool.
