Or maybe it would annoy you that when you put Mail into full screen mode, it won’t allow you to do anything on your other 30″ monitor!

It seems you’re correct. Full-screen Mail adheres to the way the iPad works. I’m guessing there’s an additional switch to toggle for this mode. Maybe I’m the only Mac user on the planet who doesn’t really use full screen mode even when its advantageous?

If you fullscreen mail, the message still does the overlay and flies up and off the screen even after running this… sadface. No Lion, I want sadface to be once word please.

Edit: Ah, don’t fullscreen and it DOES work as it did before.

Any way to get all pertinent info onto 1 line instead of 3 lines? Seems ridiculous that they broke it up like that.

I gave this to you on Twitter too about 10 minutes after you asked. Damn it, I thought I had it first.

In regards to a business model, when you develop a service your focus should be on growth over monetization. They may just sell it when they can’t afford to run it anymore, like auction ads.

I’m just going to assume you know what affiliate market is, lol. Personally, thats how I make a living, and twitter is far more useful than a Google Adwords campaign. Which IMO is an unnecessary risk when you’re dealing with a low budget.

Have you ever heard of mixergy.com? Basically this guy Andrew Warner interviews a bunch of CEOs from startups to get a feel of how they do things. Since early this year practically every person he’s interviewed has mentioned Twitter as a source of generating traffic.

When you experiment with viral media you learn pretty quickly that social media generally doesn’t convert(generate lead/sale). In that respect I don’t think Twitter can be classified as a social media. Its become the ultimate source of non invasive contextual advertising.

Sorry, that was a little long, but I believe the majority of people are only going to look at surface. Rather than digging deeper into what it actually means to profit off of a service.

Well that’s just it, Ron. Twitter is only as useful as you make it out to be. Some people enjoy the most mundane things such as what you mentioned. If you don’t enjoy those trial facts, follow someone else.

I’ve grown increasingly bored with Twitter.

Far too many people post the most boring aspects of their lives.

I don’t need to know what kind of sandwich you had for lunch.

I don’t need to know how many calories you consumed for dinner.

You get the idea.

I have drastically reduced the number of people I follow on Twitter.
