Apple Considered Purchasing a Large Stake in Twitter

The New York Times reported tonight that Apple and Twitter were talking "in recent months" about a major strategic investment in the hundreds of millions of dollars.
Apple has considered an investment in the hundreds of millions of dollars, one that could value Twitter at more than $10 billion, up from an $8.4 billion valuation last year, these people said. They declined to be named because the discussions were private.However, within several hours of the posting of the Times piece, The Wall Street Journal posted a rebuttal of sorts, saying that the Apple/Twitter discussions took place more than a year ago and didn't go anywhere:
There is no guarantee that the two companies, which are not in negotiations at the moment, will come to an agreement. But the earlier talks are a sign that they may form a stronger partnership amid intensifying competition from the likes of Google and Facebook.
Apple Inc. held discussions with Twitter Inc. more than a year ago about taking a strategic investment in the short-messaging service, according to a person familiar with the talks.Apple has run into difficulties in its social media efforts with the Ping social network on the chopping block according to Apple CEO Tim Cook. Walter Isaacson, Steve Jobs' biographer, said recently that social was one nut that Steve Jobs couldn't crack.
People familiar with the matter said there are no current formal investment or acquisition discussions between the companies.
News of the investment talks was first reported by the New York Times.
In the past year, rather than building its own social product, Apple has partnered with both Twitter and Facebook to integrate their API's into the new versions of both the iOS and OS X platforms.

(View all)still never understood the hype with twitter unless you're one of those people that think a celebrities life is more important than your own.
Ugh, what is Courier New doing here?

I see a LOT more use for Apple and Facebook to get closer, rather than Apple and Twitter... I can't for the life of me even force myself to use Twitter.
I don't see why this even matters. Recent news from Facebook and Zynga show that the social media model only gets you so far.
That is because social networking is a feature and not a standalone business in my opinion. Same goes for Dropbox. Eventually you hit a wall where you really can't make that much more money.
Exciting.............!!
...
well..
yawn....
In what Universe is Twitter worth 10 Billion dollars? It's not this one.
As an old fart I don't see any value in Facebook, Twitter or the like.
A lot of people that complain about privacy issues have all their "private" stuff out in the open.
Since I do things at my own pace, I google info when I need it and wait when it's something worth waiting for.
Maybe I should open an asocial network. "GetLost.com"
