HarperStudio has signed a seven-figure, 10-book deal with Gary Vaynerchuk, a 33-year-old Belarusian-born wine retailer from New Jersey, who, except for a talk show appearance here and there, is basically unknown in mainstream media circles.
But in the world of the Internet, he is a Twitter phenom, with 145,000 followers hanging on his every tweet. What began as a daily video blog about wine has become a self-help, business-advice juggernaut, with "Garyvee" as chief engineer. As he describes himself online, "I love people, and the hustle." The first book in his series, "Crush It! Turn Your Passion into Profits in a Digital World," lands in stores in September.

Everyone's Tweeting, from celebrities to CEOs according to CNN, The View, Today, the NY Times, the Wall St Journal and just about everyone else.

Attention, for makers of media, was once measured in circulation or ratings, back when attention was measured by meaty metrics that were immediately translatable into dollars. You’re a daily newspaper and you beat your competition bad enough to spike your circulation—well, that’s more cash in your pocket immediately. (And you can start charging higher ad rates to your advertisers.) You’re a TV station or a radio station or a cable station and your ratings go up; you can get more from your advertisers to reach your bigger audience.

With the redesign, the search box has moved to the right sidebar of the interface (only for a small subset of users at this point), where Stone claims it’s a more ‘natural part of the Twitter experience’. I agree, and it shows that the company realizes very well that real-time search is a killer feature they should be nurturing and monitoring very closely.
