Apple CEO Tim Cook joins Twitter

Apple chief executive Tim Cook has joined Twitter following the launch of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c.

Twitter verified the account of the Apple CEO shortly after media reports pointed him out, and at the time of writing, he has already amassed over 120,000 followers. Given his position in the industry, that number is likely to explode over the coming days.

For his first tweet, Cook recounted visiting retail stores in Palo Alto as the new iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c launched.

Visited Retail Stores in Palo Alto today. Seeing so many happy customers reminds us of why we do what we do.

Not really. That's simply coherent. Adopting technology which has been around for quite a while and presenting it as a fresh and new step forward is nothing but the usual Apple way. :)
