Tweet this...
Who knew that the word tweet wasn't even owned by Twitter? Apparently, since 2008, a little-known advertising agency named Twittad has owned the exclusive rights to what has become a household phrase.
This is a valuable lesson to be learned from what may at first seem funny or trivial. Although some might liken Twittad's registration of tweet to a variation of cybersquatting, the relevant standard here is bona fide use in commerce, which Twittad was able to demonstrate.
