Twatr.net is trying to keep a low profile but according to the founders it’s basically a Twitter for adults. The site is SFW right now and they’re building out HD video and image streaming/sharing along with some impressive audio features for those who might be afraid to bare it all. The Amsterdam-based company just closed a 2 million euro funding round and could be the next Redtube [NSFW so feel free to do a Google search from the privacy of your boudoir].

People who use Twitter a lot don’t get laid, because they’re too busy sending inane pings to their idiotic, circle jerk friends. By rule, people who use knockoffs get laid even less.
With a name like Twatr…
Harry “oh, nevermind” Wang
LOLL, it’s funny because it’s true, bravo “The Hater” haha

I wonder what reputation do people who own such companies have.
Are their kids (if they have them) teased at school - “you daddy’s into porn, hahaha” and so on…
Also, are VCs who invest in adult content companies taken seriously? Are other VCs feeling comfortable to be seen in public together with these (at lunches, dinners, other gatherings)?
hahahaha, “what are your privates doing?” actually, if you search Twitter for the words “horny” (http://is.gd/3GX ) or “hot humping” (http://is.gd/3GZ ) you’ll see that there’s a lot of overlap between these two services.
hmmmm…… come up and see me sometime
There needs to be a twitter for doctors and patients for free medical licensed advice! You could pay for such a service….
Is it real, is it fake? Who knows today. Tomorrow TechCrunch needs to repost all the stuff that’s legit. Until then, I’m keeping my fingers crossed that virgil selects me for their hostile takeover of Mars.
April Fool´s?
Is April 1 also a special date in the States? In Amsterdam it is….
We just need Twatr and Cockr to merge and then we’ll really have something.
Nice logo.

Who cares? If my dad was raking in millions a year from a porn site, would I care would you thought? I’d laugh all the way to the bank.
That said, Twitter is for homos.
i hate it, whenever something is successful…hoards of copycats makes all kinds of variants, and they’re of course rarely - if ever, anywhere near as successful
You gotta be original on the web, and this isn’t

Maybe I am a dullard or focusing too much on today’s date, but what possible use for the site could there be? An adult version of twitr? Will that basically be looking at posts like “I’m moving in”, “Load delivered” except with out decency.

My co-worker’s “little ones” have no problemo with their parent being in the biz. The little turds are very popular it appears. I bet the boys get additional cred when they hit high school age. I could see the girl getting a bit harrassed.
Harry “no different than most of the other things done for money in this world” Wang
I’m calling BS on this one…
We were laughing over here until we remembered…this IS April Fools so this could most definitely be a joke….hmmmmmmm .. we shall see!
OH MAN!!! the trademark infringement suit could get harry
This sounds better, how the hell do they get the funding for such a venture? my oh my! http://www.trade2save.com/blog
You can count on the porn industry to turn your good name into something filthy and funny
Twatr? bwhhwhhaahaha
Yeah, Twatr domain name is John Biggs’ property (the author of this post) and this is an April 1st joke.
However, thanks for the opinions on reputation of owners of such sites.
April April
C’mon…the admin/tech contact for the domain name is JOHN BIGGS. Think he used to star in porn movies????
I’m glad that this is an April Fool as I came very close to writing a very similar post myself (porn sites piggy backing web 2.0 sites with names like dikk, fuckr, twtt etc..) and am not sure I could have dealt with it if this turned out to be true…
Dumb humor. Rise above gradeschool level, Biggs. What next from you, cuntbook.com? I got one: dickmunch.com. You know, techcrunch but for smart readers.
you missed this one http://twatter.org/ and i believe twitters original name was twatter.com.
Personally, I think “Twuntr” would have a better ring to it.
Not sure, facebook might have feature to retrieve Twitter user status real time.
