The name has always been "Twitter," but they were wanting to get the SMS short code "twttr." Unfortunately for them (fortunately for us?) someone already had it. :)
- rabble 16y agoIt was always PRONOUNCED twitter, but we did write it twttr, everywhere, back in the day.
- jeremymcanally 16y agoRight, that's what I meant. :)
