Twitter to offer "earlybird" deals

Twitter is hoping that a stream of time-limited deals and special offers will open up a new revenue stream. The company launched a new @earlybird account this week where the status update mainstay plans to offer special promotions from selected advertisers.

Twitter wants to tap into the stream of special offers and deals that companies are already promoting through their own twitter accounts, according to the Twitter Web site. The goal is to put those deals in a centralized place and encourage users to discover and follow those company accounts.
