Did you know that 450 people were able to get round trip tickets to Europe for $250, including taxes. How did they do it? They simply went on Twitter and followed Rick Seany, CEO of fare compare.com. Some other people were able to get $9 tickets from Jet Blue Air from JFK to Nantucket. Some other people found $444 roundtrip tickets from California to Australia.
The trick is to find out who to follow and get news from them. You can get instant travel tips if you find the right network of people and get awesome deals like the ones mentioned above. It doesn't end at just airfare either. You can get hotel deals and whole vacation packages, as well.
Personally, I haven't tried Twitter yet, but for this reason alone I think I will sign up. What about you guys, are you a member of Twitter and have you heard about being able to get vacation deals from them?

Hi, Sasuke!
I know that we can make money from Twitter by following others for a certain number of people. I have joined Twitter quite some time ago, but I am not active an active member. That was a great vacation deals you mentioned above and perhaps there are more attractive deals in Twitter now for international members. I guess it's worth the time to check it out now. Thanks for the information.

You mentioned making money from Twitter. Does this refer to getting deals on travel packages, products, and such? Or do you mean you can make some income from Twitter. If so please let me know how this is possible. I had no idea that a person can make money just by following a certain number of people.

Glad to be of help. If you find any good deals please post a discussion or let me know. I will also start following Rick Seaney once I sign up for Twitter. I am also going to try looking around and see if I can find other sources for travel deals on Twitter. If I find any more I'll be sure to post them here on Mylot.
