Who says Twitter isn’t making any money? Dell claims to have made more than $2 million in revenue, directly from its @DellOutlet account, on which the company tweets special offers on refurbished or slightly damaged merchandise. If it counts purchases made after users clicked a link on the Twitter account, which it claims has more than 600,000 followers, Dell has generated more than $3 million in sales.
