Twitter Purchased by MTV

In shocking news today, Twitter was purchased by Rock Band publisher, MTV. MTV has been slowly getting into technology and video games, and the Twitter acquisition comes as no surprise to most industry insides. Check out the video announcement below. You will need Silverlight installed.

All attempts to contact Twitter have failed. Apparently they wanted to release a statement through Twitter last night, however were unable to do so as Twitter kept going down. They finally gave up and sent out messages of the acquisition via friendfeed. Watch the link that was sent out via friendfeed below.


Video: rick astley – never gonna give you up

Of course if you actually believed that Twitter was purchased by MTV, you should have a smile on your face, and as Ashton Kutcher would say, you have been “Rickrolled!”
