The twitter blog claims that twitter has secured a fresh round of funding from Peter Fenton from Benchmark and Todd Chaffee from Institutional Venture Partners

Whats surprising is that twitter wasn't really looking into fresh rounds of funding at this stage. So what made them go for this?

TechCrunch says that the funding is in excess of $35 million! Why would anyone ever refuse such an offer :-)

Lets hope the good folks at twitter buy some more servers and we see less twitter fail whales in the future.
