I thought twitter basically ended up moving international head office to Ireland not London so the London office is tiny. Facebook wants developers so has to be a bit more visible, while Twitter was just a sales office. Guessing Facebook will do events there soon.
As for the article, it is just not very thorough. See this comment for location and link to article about it. Its a high budget office. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4289895 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4289895

I have a feeling Twitter's London based engineering team is a result of the TweetDeck acquisition. Re: Blackfriars - it's not a totally nuts location for a mobile engineering team, because it's where Symbian's offices are/were. Lot of mobile engineering talent already commuting to the area.
