I even hesitated doing it in the first place because I didn't want to violate that trust we build up as digital friends. Thanks for chiming in. It's interesting to broach these subjects since no one else really has solved the issues yet. Thanks for contributing. Shey - I was a little surprised, too.

I did clarify later on by saying I don't mind the promotion of personal charity projects: http://twitter.com/shey/statuses/776547017 It's understandable that with any community/network there's inevitably going to be an attempt to monetize it. On the other hand, I have no issue with personal advertising and promotion. Sell yourself all you want! I’m surprised most people didn’t agree with me, I thought we were all sick of ads.

I was quite amused personally. I don't really have a problem with selling things, as long as you're honest about it to your readers and purpose of your Tweets doesn't just become advertising.

There's obviously some strong points on either side of the aisle. I'd still love to know where you think the line should be drawn. And please chime in and let Michael know if you went through to vote. I can count five folks I know of. I'm sure there's more. Great responses all.

Subvert and Profit comes to mind.

I wonder how effective the Twitter post was? I mean, how many of your Followers saw it, how many clicked it, and how many actually went through the registration process and voted for Your Mapper. Post a message to let us know which category you fell into. Whether I'm in the top 20 when NetSquared announces tomorrow or not, it would be good to know anyway. 1. Voted! 2. Voted, but not for Your Mapper... 3. Registered, but didn't finish voting in time or had issues with the voting site. 4. Went to the NetSquared site, but didn't vote. 5. Went to Metro Mapepr site, but didn't vote. 6. Saw the Tweet, but didn't vote. 7. Didn't see the tweet until now. Now you’ve got me thinking…

What a great way to get some press, help each other out, and keep it all free. Kudos. You could just pass it back to Metro Mapper here: http://www.metromapper.org/donate.php Oh, ScottMonty said you should have charged >$. For the record, I would have paid up to $10 for the tweet.
