Twitter has acquired social data provider Gnip, extending the companies' four-year partnership.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
According to Twitter, this move will help "to offer more sophisticated data sets and better enrichments" for developers and businesses.
Gnip (pronounced guh-nip) launched in 2008 and served as the first official data partner for Twitter, Tumblr, Foursquare, Wordpress, Google+, Facebook, and YouTube.
