Twitter joins Google, Yahoo, PayPal, Blizzard and Facebook (to name just a few) as the latest Internet giant to use Ireland as a base.
Commenting on the announcement, Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Richard Bruton said: "[This] is a massive win and shows there is real ground for Ireland’s claim to be the Internet capital of Europe."
