Touché. I wasn't sure if this was a joke or not though. The fact that people actually do this when naming something made it pretty hard to figure out if he was serious.

Just curious... why would you want to do that even if you're stuck? This is more of a quick brainstorm method, I don't think he's even looked to see if the domain name is available at this point. Also, I'd rather have something like "getfli

Just wondering how you'll handle spam? What if someone goes to fiverr, gets a couple hundred spam tweets, then buys it for a couple bucks? Really interesting idea though, reminds me of Pay with a tweet.

I'd guess that the reason their bribes were higher isn't because they had more power, but because they had more money. If a politician is making 50k, a 10k bribe would be significant. That same 10k is a drop in the bucket for a tv station o

False alarm? I'm in the busiest room on Turntable.fm right now and there's 15 people in here. Maybe 200 total using it right now. Looks like the US-only restriction isn't working out too well.

Well... it probably depends on how they claim to get these followers/fans. If all you have to do is pay money, then yes it's a 'scam'. While it isn't really a scam because I'm sure they'll get you more followers or fans, they'll all be bots
