Twitter is considering selling user names to generate new revenue

Twitter is considering selling user names to generate new revenue.

The story was broke by NYT.

They have said they have been mulling this since December.

It is unclear how it would function, though some users have suggested that it would likely be auction style.

Previous models have suggested if the account is not used for two years or more, it might likely be auctioned.

Numerous accounts are not used, though the numbers are kept private by Twitter.
