  It looks tough for me to think that Twitter will end up monetizing the huge amount of traffic just via advertising. It's so shortsigthed and I believe Biz Stone knows this.
  Is more interesting for them to explore what they can do their their flourishing ecosystem, than simple add advertising that it would require to be very personalized and targeted for creating any interests on brands/

  Agree. Besides, where can Twitter place ads?

  I guess Twitter is trying to assess the playing field for a while before launching an advertising campaign that will propel the social media site's prominence even further. I think that unless they could come up with something more amazing than Facebook, which will be soon initiating an ad campaign as well, there is a possibility that they can come close to Facebook's user numbers.
