Twitter is a privately funded startup with offices in the SoMA neighborhood of San Francisco, CA. Started as a side project in March of 2006, Twitter has grown into a real-time short messaging service that works over multiple networks and devices.
In countries all around the world, people follow the sources most relevant to them and access information via Twitter as it happens—from breaking world news to updates from friends
The NBN has its own Twitter page and two groups; one to update the inner NBN community on our activities and a second to follow the wildlife organisations in the UK who are also Twitterers. Note that you will need a Twitter account to be able to access these groups.
