<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-17374" title="21352v7-max-250x250" src="http://media.itsalltech.com/2011/05/21352v7-max-250x250.png" alt="" width="105" height="105" />According to a claim from <a href="http://techcrunch.com/2011/05/02/twitter-to-buy-tweetdeck-for-40-million-50-million/" target="_blank">TechCrunch</a>, Twitter has purchased the popular third-party client TweetDeck for somewhere between $40 and $50 million today. According to several reports, Twitter made the acquisition to stop Uber Media, another third-party company that developers a multitude of Twitter clients, from purchasing TweetDeck first.</p>
<p>We first heard rumors that <a href="http://itsalltech.com/2011/04/18/twitter-looking-to-acquire-tweetdeck-for-50-million/">Twitter was in talks with TweetDeck</a>, a 15-person company,<a href="http://itsalltech.com/2011/04/18/twitter-looking-to-acquire-tweetdeck-for-50-million/"></a> to make an acquisition last month, but it wasn't clear how far along the two parties were in negotiations. At this time, it's unclear what Twitter has in store for TweetDeck.</p>
<p>What do you think about this?</p>
