Yappd Acquired
by Allen Stern on October 23rd, 2007
Quick acquisition news: Yappd, the visual Twitter clone has been acquired. I don’t have many details except that it appears basically the underlying technology has been purchased for inclusion into another application. Check out my interview with co-founder Brendan Lim from August. Kristen from Mashable has some additional insights into the acquisition.
I have enjoyed getting to know Brendan over the past few months. He has a great attitude about life and work and I look forward to seeing what he produces next.
