A hired tweeter has earnt $3,000 for pushing a button. He finds ads he likes and is paid to post them to all his friends and followers on Twitter. Is this the final frontier for advertising? Intercepting people’s conversations and taking part in their relationships to push forward a brand? Twitter and Facebook have been developing systems in which users are paid to send ads out to their friends every now and then or having adverts on their Facebook page.

What's this world coming to? I don't know if everyone is earning $3K like the guy in this story, but there must be money in it. Too many people tweeting ads to stuff like teeth whitening products. There is no other explanation for all those garbage advertising tweets.
