Bit.ly Buys Social Media Publishing Tool Twitterfeed

URL Shortening Site dominant Bit.ly tool, has acquired social twitterfeed publication.
TweetDeck is a tool that automatically publishes RSS feeds to social networking with a title and a shortened link Bit.ly. With this service, you can set your blog to publish to your Twitter account, Twitter or RSS to publish on its Web site LinkedIn. While some functions may appear in Bit.ly twitterfeed at some point, not the technology that is Bit.ly later.



"Let's face it, posting Twitter updates is not an exact science," says CEO Peter Bit.ly Stern.

More valuable is twitterfeed user base and its creator, Mario Menti. Twitterfeed has over 1 million unique users and posts more than 5 million updates per month (okay, these are automatic). Bit. ly could have the opportunity to make its analysis of the most obvious features of the user base - and increase sales to its data quality tools in the meantime.

For now, however, neither Bit. twitterfeed mind nor users are likely to notice the change in ownership.

"We bought it because it is a product that is there, is growing in use," says Stern, who became CEO in May after the deal was closed. "In the immediate future is a kind of business as usual."
