Who Locked Up Newsweek's Twitter URL?

Bruce Nussbaum

David Armano points out that the Twitter URLs for CNBC, MSNBC, Newsweek and Business Week are registered by someone with an email address that goes by "pleasantcreature."

Remember all those legal cases back in the day when people played the Domain name game and often tried to extract money?

Does that mean that the "Bruce Nussbaum Innovation Insights" "pushed" out by the Business Week Twitter avatar will really created by "Pleasant Creature"?

It will be interesting to see what develops.

I currently get about 5 "pushes" an hour on Twitter from NY Times, BBC, Fox, and CNN.
