Too many companies I've worked with are unable to articulate just exactly who it it they are and what they do. But now Internet technology is forcing companies to form a new kind of shorthand for their company strategy.
The newest version of the "elevator pitch" is a "Twitpitch," so named in an article in Business Week Small Biz because it "forces you to tell your company's story in 140 characters (about 20 words), the maximum length of a message on Twitter, a microblogging platform that is gaining popularity. Social media pioneer Stowe Boyd experimented with the idea and coined the term on his blog last month when, overwhelmed by e-mails, he decided to take appointments at the Web 2.0 Expo only via Twitter."
