Twitter trialling ads on profile pages

News reaches us this morning from www.thenextweb.com that Twitter is trialling advertising on profile pages. The advertising is small and unobtrusive and is currently being trialled with internal messages only.

Time will tell if this becomes a key revenue stream. It is a good step for Twitter but the real challenge is how to monetise the larger audience that use ‘clients’ like Twhirl or Tweetdeck who rarely visit profile pages.
