So it gives some indication just like an offline etiquette. Doing it all wrong is indeed hilarious :) Best is to look at a good or bad example that's why I asked. Bad examples are all companies not responding to tweets. Still looking for an inspiring good example.. Yep lots of different etiquettes but they have all some general baseline in common.

Well, I think there should be as many different Twitter Etiquettes as there are Twitter users :-). Do you know Emily Postnews? A hilarious read: http://www.faqs.org/faqs/usenet/emily-postnews/part1/ Company Twitter: The thing is that all the good examples I can think of right now are by people I know - so I'm hardly being objective. I'll think about it, perhaps I'll find some examples where I don't know the people :-). Oh, Twitter Etiquette!

It has to be human and no rss-feed like stuff. Some Swiss examples of good and bad would be great. meanwhile check How not to use twitter http://knockyoursocks.blogspot.com/2008/11/how-not-to-use-twitter.html @matthias I agree with you.

I just like it when companies don't sound like PR departments. Not sure I’m qualfied to say what’s right and what’s wrong :-). I just like it when companies don’t sound like PR departments.

Currently I have about 1300 Swiss Twitter users in the database, but I'm quite certain there are more users around. I just haven't found them yet. There are indeed many Swiss businesses on Twitter, and most of them (although not all) just use it to feed their marketing/blog entries to Twitter. Very few of them answer to questions or comments.
