On July 15, CNN iReporter Chris Morrow visited the Cool Twitter Conference at Croces in San Diego where I was speaking. (The conference was terrific. Read Marketing Melodie’s Live Blogging coverage for more info.)

Reporter Chris Morrow came to ask a few of the Speakers their thoughts about what the future holds for Twitter.  Watch the report above and see what you think.

Now that you’ve watched the video and heard from us, what do YOU think the future will hold for Twitter?

• Will Twitter live to be older than the average age of most social networks of 5 years? (Twitter is 3 years old now)
• Will Twitter Win a Nobel Peace Prize? (You can vote Here)
• Will Twitter be Man of the Year as suggested by Bob Rice?

Leave your comments below and tell us your thoughts around these options and many others! And keep your eyes open, Chris’ video just might end up on your TV on CNN.

I’ll be interviewing Chris Morrow about her career as a freelance journalist and her use of twitter on Boost Your Business Radio with my Cohost Rieva Lesonsky on July 29 at 11am PST.  Come listen–her daily travels are fascinating! How many people do you know who interview people while traveling in a private helicopter?
