Commercial Tweets?

Today I came across an application for Twitter that offers a way to monetize you tweets. It's called Twivert. What it does, apparently, is automatically tweet commercials for itself and other pay services available on the internet. It does this every few days or so, give or take.


This might not be so bad if you tweet several times a day. Your followers might be able to ignore the intrusive unwanted advertising without unfollowing you. Maybe.
Seriously though, who wants to see commercials? I don't. Do you? Most people don't.
Other than the unwanted spam, the biggest downfall of this service is that if you're only tweeting once or twice a month or so, it takes over your twitter stream with advertisements.
