Microsoft Acquires Twitter, the Blogosphere Erupts
If Microsoft acquires Twitter, the blogosphere as we know it could completely change—but for better or worse? Twitter has erupted after a tweet from Andrew Keen that posits Microsoft bought Twitter.
About two hours ago, the tweet from @ajkeen read: “Microsoft just announced they’ve acquired Twitter #techcrunch.” Since then, the rumor that Microsoft bought Twitter has spread like wildfire—including counter-rumors that posit that the Microsoft-Twitter partnership is a hoax for TechCrunch.
There’s no official word to confirm or deny that Microsoft acquired Twitter, but rest assured that we’ll hear the truth sooner rather than later.
