CNBC speculates that Twitter will get takeover offer

CNBC says Friday that Twitter may soon receive an offer to be purchased by a tech firm — they name two who have reportedly shown interest. One is Google  and the other is Salesforce, a U.S. cloud computing company. Twitter has continued to be a puzzlement to many people because it is wildly popular with users but can’t seem to make money. No one knows — or even asks it seems — why Twitter doesn’t slap ads on all its pages the way Facebook does. FB has seen sidebar ads for everything from lonely ladies to the New York Times.
