Glam UK to roll out Tinker microblogging aggregation service

tinker-logoWeb network Glam Media is a fan of microblogging, it seems. Following the set up and monetization of a moderated Oscars Twitter feed this year, the company has announced that it’s to roll out the Tinker.com conversation aggregator in the UK over the next few months.

Tinker.com was launched in the US last month and will trial in the UK before being fully implemented and funded by advertising.

Conversations being held across Twitter, Facebook and FriendFeed are currently aggregated by the service.

Advertising will include the ability for brands to sponsor certain words, plus embedded widgets on the Tinker interface.

Interesting that third parties are finding ways of monetizing this content while Twitter itself struggles.
