I completely agree with the idea that companies have to defend themselves against url squatters. I have seen some effective messages by companies explaining their actions. At the same time, I have witnessed other companies using this tactic as a stalling strategy. They simply place their brand in limbo, don't add anything, and worst of all don't acknowledge their audience. Times are tough and manpower is at a premium. There must be a better solution. I love Twitalyzer as it truly is a valuable method to understand what you are doing and how to either fix your messages or continue moving forward. Maybe you should brand that reference to "Twitiquette." That's sharp and I haven't heard anyone else use it. Thanks again for the input! dean Hi Ray,

Personally, I feel that Nameholder isn't a bad idea to protect a company or person's name if a link or message is provided on that account directing people to more information about the company. As a general guideline, I've been using Twitalyzer as well to "analyze" Twitter behavior for myself and others. It offers a "tweeting analysis" of Signal/Noise, as well as other factors, over the course of a week. It also offers additional tips on "social mediquette". Or is it "Twitiquette"? A good strategy here.
