Twitter offered $500,000 to run ad just one day

According to The Telegraph, Microblogging site Twitter has been offered half a million dollars to feature a single banner advert on its pages for just one day.

The offer has been made by uSocial, a company that specialises in marketing products and services through the social-networking website. It has offered Twitter $500,000 if it hosts an advert on its site for 24 hours.

Shades of another era? Sounds like we've been here before, circa 2000, when companies like computer.com spent 3 million dollars on three 30 second superbowl commercials, after raising 6 million with investors.
