A small but interesting acquisition for Twitter as it continues to hone the services that it delivers to brands and other would-be advertisers alongside its core microblogging service: it has bought Nclud, a Washington, DC-based web design agency for an undisclosed amount.The deal was announced by co-founder and director of brand experience Martin Ringlein, appropriately enough, on Twitter (where he tweets as @martymadrid): "It's true ... @ncludwas acquired. As of today, I am the new Design Manager at Twitter!!" he wrote on Sunday.Update: A Twitter spokeperson notes that in fact it has not bought the whole company, but it has bought the company's IP, and that some of the staff are joining: "I can confirm that some members of the nclud team now work at Twitter," he wrote in an email. "Twitter did not acquire nclud, the company, but we did acquire their IP." He did not provide the financial terms of the deal.
