An eBay Inc. effort to broaden communication through the popular
Twitter Web-messaging service highlights the hurdles facing corporate
users of online social media. The online auctioneer launched a
corporate blog in April 2008. Two months later, blogger Richard
Brewer-Hay began "tweeting" -- posting updates on Twitter -- about
Silicon Valley technology conferences, eBay's quarterly earnings calls
and other topics. The growing Twitter audience also attracted the
attention of eBay's lawyers, who last month required Mr. Brewer-Hay to
include regulatory disclaimers with certain posts. Some followers
think the tougher oversight is squelching Mr. Brewer-Hay's
spontaneous, informal style.
