Google a Twittering
March 1, 2009
On March 1, 2009, another story about a possible tie up between Google and Twitter surfaced. The source? Jennifer Bosavage and CRNCanada. You can read the story “Wedding bells for Google and Twitter?” here. For me, the most interesting comment in the article was:
Could Google be eyeing Twitter as an acquisition? That possibility’s got the blogosphere all “a-twitter,” pardon the pun. Earlier this week, Google activated its Twitter account and all Tweets broke loose. As of Friday morning, Google had more than 26,000 followers. The speculation is that, in a move similar to its purchase of YouTube, Google is interested in buying Twitter.
Google has been somewhat clumsy in the real time news space. Maybe Ms. Bosavage and CRNCanada have an inside track on this alleged tie up.
