76,000 Twitter followers – really?

There is some buzz in the legal press about an #Rex, a young attorney with 76,000 followers and a believer in sponsored links.   “Rex Gradeless” is a recent law grad who is passionate about the law and also about making money on the Internet.  Is there a conflict between the two?  Will clients who follow him from his sponsored links want to use him as a lawyer?  Will people who know him as a lawyer be put off by his making money on the Internet?  Do people under thirty think about such distinctions or is the new Web 2.0 world just a big messy jumble.

I have no answers, just questions.
