Twitter looks to raise a bundle in IPO Empty Twitter looks to raise a bundle in IPO

Twitter Inc will seek to raise $1 billion in the largest Silicon Valley IPO since Facebook Inc's 2012 coming-out party, according to an IPO filing made public on Thursday.

The eight-year-old service, the preferred communications tool for celebrities and politicians alike, gave potential investors their first glance at its financials.

Revenue almost tripled to $316.9 million in 2012, from $106.3 million in 2011. It said about 65 percent of its revenue derives from mobile users. But the company has not made a penny in profits since 2010.
(Hmmm, isn't Twitter the preferred communications tool for large activist movements as well?)
