TechCrunch: "Twitter has acquired TweetDeck, we’ve heard from a source with knowledge of the deal, and the transaction will be announced in the next few days. The $40 million – $50 million purchase price includes both cash and Twitter stock, says our source."
If you can't compete with them, BUY them
they probably prefer the $50 Million :)
You know they're going to kill it off. All they want is their one Twitter app. It's BS. I guess it's time for a "new" twitter like social network.
Well.. I don't use Tweetdeck, but i hope they keep it around and stop trying to kill off 3rd party apps. I hate the official Twitter app :)
