Twitter claims ownership of "Retweet"

Quote:
Together with the announcement of the Retweet implementation on Twitter it seems that Twitter has started to send out Cease & Desist orders to third party developers in a try to protect its trademarks. In a weird spin of things, Mesiahlabs, developer of Retweet.com which we discussed previously, has become the victim of this because Twitter has received approval for the term tweet. Mesiab Labs? @retweet account has effectively been suspended by Twitter. Previously the company had announced that they had no plans to ?go after? companies using the term ?Tweet?
