Is today the day that Twitter finally unveils its advertising platform?
TechCrunch reports that Twitter CEO Evan Williams will be interviewed at SXSW, providing the perfect platform to announce that Twitter will be rolling out advertising on its search engine (search.twitter.com) based on relevancy.
If Twitter does go public with its much-anticipated advertising strategy, it would probably takeover the spotlight from the location-based service crowd (Foursquare, Gowalla, et al), which had been expected to be the talk of the town.

It may do exactly that…steal the spotlight from location apps like FourSquare (overrated & dangerous in my opnion ). Twitter's finally deciding to move into monetization is a bit belated but will be interesting to watch.
Thanks for the comment. It's easy to see why Twitter's drive to generate revenue will capture so much attention.
