This makes much sense, because Summize offers great Sentiment Analysis technology.

With Summize Twitter is now a gold mine for Web Data Mining and Web Monitoring.

Ford could ask Twitter, how their products do. If the people like their new car or not. Ford could pay Twitter to monitor all their products and get alarmed, if the twitter crowd of early adopters talks bad about a particular auto.

Twitter + Summize is like ICQ + Nielsen//NetRatings on steroids

I will make a deeper comment on the relationship between Twitter and Summize, here, later
