The value of connection: The real value of Twitter

Today, I was browsing through my email and I ran across an email from Jeff Keni Pulver. The email immediately caught my attention because of the subject: twitter is worth Billions... AND then it went on to say something about the up-coming 140 Conferences that will be held in various locations all over the world. My attention here is on the valuation of Twitter. Though I have thought about this proposition many times, it was not until I watched this video...

... that I really put some brain muscle behind the idea.. "How much is Twitter worth??" Jeff Keni Pulver made some pretty compelling observations as it pertains to the impact that Twitter has had on the media, in fact he bought to light that Twitter has fundamentally changed how we communicate as a people in a wide range of industries and facets of life, he calls it "The State of Now" - Real-Time Internet... Now THAT is compelling.

This type of disruption causes me to think about things like the telephone, heck... THE AIRPLANE, as well as a dozen other "game changers" that have basically "re-shaped" how we connect with one another. What are these things worth? IF you are indeed the owner of a "game changing" technology, what value do you bring to the table. Can we REALLY place a value on such a thing?
