Mediabistro.com, a division of online media and conferences company WebMediaBrands, this morning announced that it has acquired the assets of the Twittercism.com blog from founder Shéa Bennett.
As you can tell from the name, the blog focused exclusively on micro-sharing service Twitter, providing tips, tricks, tweaks, tools and tutorials, as well as news, articles, opinion and rumors. The site has been around for about two years.
Bennett will continue working with and writing for Mediabistro, but other terms of the acquisition were not disclosed.
WebMediaBrands already operates a Twitter-focused blog called AllTwitter, which complementes other social media blogs such as AllFacebook and SocialTimes, which the media company acquired back in December 2009.
About a year ago, WebMediaBrands bought social media news site Rotorblog.com, which appears to have been deadpooled now (i.e. folded into SocialTimes).
WebMediaBrands Inc., headquartered in New York, NY, is a global provider of information for creative, business and information technology professionals, operating three distinct online networks: Mediabistro.com, and Graphics.com. WebMediaBrands formerly owned Internet.com until its sale to QuinStreet for $18M.
