Twitter originally announced that it filed for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) back in September, and released the S-1 form early last month. Originally, predictions for the share price were in the range of $17-20, only to increase to $23-25 by late October.
Twitter is a popular social network where users can ‘tweet’ 140-character messages to the web. From these messages, other Twitter users can choose to reply, favorite, or ‘retweet’ said tweets.
