Anyone finding Twitter as Major Source of their Blog Traffic?

I have been experimenting with twitter for last month and I am not sure of the results on traffic to my blog?

What is everyone else's results like? How are others using Twitter to gain traffic?

BTW, friendfeed or twitter? Which do you use?

Maybe someone in tbe twitter group can tell you: www.blogcatalog.com/group/twitter

I personally use twitter for communication. I'll sometimes announce new posts, but I don't see it as a traffic-getting tool.

I use the Twitter Tools plugin on my WordPress blog, and I do see a fair amount of traffic coming in. But I believe that's more because many of the people following me are also friends and people I communicate with. So I read their blogs and they mine. What I have noticed is that people whose twitter streams consist of nothing but new blog posts are quickly ignored.

I get decent traffic from it. A few hundred page views a month but I wouldn't call it a significant source.

I'm still working on it.. I haven't seen strong results with it so far though.
