On Brand with Nick Westergaard Social Sound Bite: New Retweet Feature, Is Google Buying Twitter?
On this week’s Social Sound Bite – recorded live at the KXIC studios in Iowa City – Jay and I discussed a new retweet feature from Twitter plus speculation on the social network’s acquisition. As Twitter’s stock price crept up Tuesday, so did rumors of a potential takeover from not one but two different suitors including Google! Listen for the full sound bite and enjoy these useful links to the news, trends, and tips included in this week’s show.
Beyond the Sound Bite
- Twitter officially lets you retweet with comments now (Mashable)
- Twitter’s stock price rises after Google buyout rumours – not for the first time (The Guardian)
- Google buying Twitter would be like Microsoft buying Yahoo (Business Insider)
Remember, the Social Sound Bite is just the appetizer! On Monday morning we’ll serve up a fresh new episode of the On Brand Podcast. This week we have psychologist, speaker, and author Heidi Grant Halvorson.
