What's the relationship between fluther and Twitter?

Twitter doesn’t really have a relationship with Fluther, per se. They acquired our tech team (including the site’s founders), but not the site itself. Fluther is still owned by the original founders, they just work for Twitter now. I’m the community manager here, and I still work for Fluther.

As for why they were interested, I’d assume it was because there’s some pretty innovative technology behind this site. Our tech guys are awesome.

Welcome to Fluther, by the way!

Welcome to fluther as well. The answer to your question: We have auggie. We can kick anyone’s ass!

They live together but don’t sleep together…..
Yeah,I know…..suuuuuurrrrre they don’t! XD

If they mated they would make “Twithers” or “Flutters”.

Twitter: I’m having Macaroni and Cheese!
Fluther: I ate macaroni and cheese, and now I have red spots on my throat! Does this relate to my dream about breaking up with that guy I really like, and what movie is this?

160 characters? DalePetrie can’t post less than 160 paragraphs!

They’re apparently “just friends”, but I’ve heard otherwise. TMZ recently caught them hanging out at the local bar getting quite cozy with one another.

They share the same plaid pants

@augustlan Don’t let it get out, but you really are the guiding light since the whole twitter deal.

Aww thanks, guys!
