Bangalore: Twitter co-founder Biz Stone denied all speculations and said that Twitter did not have any plans of running a Twitter new network reports Oliver Chiang Stone reportedly told the news agency, "I think a Twitter News Service would be something that would be very open and shared with many different news organizations around the world." This story, titled "Twitter co-founder hopes to create news network", has led to speculation that the company is planning or interested in such a news network. However, it now appears that the idea was more of an imagining than anything concrete yet. Matt Graves spokesperson for Twitter tweeted that why should we think of a Twitter news service if there already exists one? It is called Twitter Touche which sells access to its feed of updates from users to Google, Microsoft and Yahoo.
