Looking for Venture Capitalists? Try Twitter!

Gaebler Ventures today points out that there are a few venture capitalists using Twitter to find new ventures.

The list he features only includes US VC’s – but how long will it be before UK VC’s are seeing the value and jumping on the Twitter bandwagon?

For them Twitter is ideal as it allows them to look through micro-proposals and see which ones they want to look at more indepth. For businesses loking for capital it is ideal as you need to really focus your business message to get it across in 140 characters!

Who knows, maybe we’ll see a Twitter VC auction before the end of 2008 ;)
