These suggestions are really laughable. Sure, the advertising model makes sense, but that isn't exactly rocket science, and that's only one suggestion. Charging for ad-free service never works -- advertisers want to target the very people that would pay for to such a service. If you're an advertiser, you want to target people who are willing to pay extra for a convenience -- the exact people who would opt out. My favorite example of the author's ignorance: #9. Can you imagine what would happen if Twitter sold its email list? Many of the Twitter users that I know are skeptical about the service, and it looks like the users in general are technically savvy -- all it would take is a really bad PR piece to start a mass exodus.
