Good news. Doesn't sound like many employees at all, but still great to see a big-name company open an office downtown.

It's also really nice to see a company that is not under Gilbert's umbrella invest in the city. He's doing a phenominal job getting his companies downtown, but we need more outside companies to join the party.

Twitter announced today that it will open an office in Detroit in the m@dison building to coordinate with the advertising and marketing firms located there. Seems like pretty awesome news. For sure the largest player in the technology market to locate to Detroit yet.

Wow this is amazing news! Even though it's a "handful" of workers, the presence of this type of company creates such great credibility for Dan Gilbert's team [[not that they did not have it prior). Gilbert for mayor!!

Office? Or nest?

Do you have to supply your own blue feathers?

What if you're not a birdbrain?

Care to explain what you're "squawking" about...

Now if only we could get Google to consolidate its Birmingham and Ann Arbor offices into one large downtown Detroit office, downtown would be WELL on its way.

Just curious...If google were to combine offices, how many people would that bring downtown? In other words, how many folks work at each office?

This is great news. More jobs, more jobs!

Maybe "WEBward" is taking hold.

Would it be Twiggle? Or Googlitter?

Oh wait.... you probably didn't mean if the companies combined, did you?
