So Microsoft joined the twitter party today. Although they already had accounts for the various departments, today’s the day they finally started Tweeting from the /Microsoft account. @Microsoft is being managed by 4 people from the Communications Team.

Their first tweet was “Anyone can make games now, Kodu is available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace http://bit.ly/3wlWKo #microsoft #xboxlive #kodu” – Yeah great one Microsoft. As of writing this post (3 hours after tweet) that link had only 70 clicks, granted they only have two thousand followers at the moment, we’ll let you off Microsoft. However FYI MS I heard there’s a sure fire way to increase your twitter following you could have 16,000 followers in 90 days or your money back: http://www.twittertrafficmachine.com/

What really made me chuckle was the fact that Microsoft’s twitter account is not verified! [See screenshot] How do we know this is the official one for all we know @real_microsoft is the genuine one, they do have “real” in their name after all.

Good luck tweeting looking forward to it.
