I don't know if that is true, on how much it sold for but I can say it is easily worth $250,000.

There might be some legal issues with Twitter over that.

Do you use Twitter? One of Twitters core functions is called Retweet.

Its mentioned on Flippa.

Rumor is twitter bought it as there was more than one application for the retweet trademark.

Makes sense! They would have been fools not to buy it.

Not if they bought it, and who the fuck else would fork out a quarter mil for that? Amazing sale really.

I'm pretty sure Twitter bought it. At the very top it has the Twitter logo and saying to sign in with Twitter. It seems it's to promote the retweet buttom for websites. Though every social network button, with the dozens of sites added on it, has a Twitter button. :upsidedow

Same thoughts here...they use the word 'retweet' in their design. If nothing else I wouldn't be shocked if they challenged it.

gwidomains 03-10-2010 01:41 PM

I bet twitter.com bought it.

$250K is cheap to have that headache out of the way.
