On May 8, 2009, Global Nemesis president and CEO Hugh Jassman IV announced that he is considering purchasing the online free social messaging utility called Twitter.
“I am simply amazed by this new technology,” said Jassman at Friday’s board meeting. “I just signed up this morning and I already have over 100 followers. People like Demi Moore and Miss California Carrie Prejean. This Twitter is a public relations goldmine!”

Following the meeting, the Global Nemesis acquisitions team was instructed to make an offer for Twitter. A response from the San Francisco-based company is pending.
In March 2009, a Nielsen.com blog ranked Twitter as the fastest-growing site in the Member Communities category for February 2009. Twitter had a growth of 1382%.
“Growth of 1382% is outstanding and certainly makes Twitter worthy of our interest,” Jassman announced at an afternoon press conference. “I think most people know that when Global Nemesis is interested in acquiring a new subsidiary, the potential for growth and financial return is a given.”
