Twitter Inc. took a big step toward making the big money its investors expect Wednesday by opening up its micro-blogging platform to third party sales of advertising, initially by a select group of five companies.
San Francisco-based Twitter first began selling "Promoted Tweets" -- advertiser messages that appear users' content streams -- in 2010.
The outside companies it has initially designated to manage ad campaigns are Adobe, HootSuite, Salesforce.com (NYSE: CRM), SHIFT and TBG Digital. More will follow, according to a blog post by April Underwood, a Twitter product manager for revenue.
