Twitter has made a “strategic alliance” with NTT America Enterprise Hosting Services for their reliability and global perspective(whatever that means).
Maybe it’s because I am not in the “biz”, but I’ve never heard of these guys. My Speculation: By strategic alliance, Twitter probably got a great deal since NTT will be getting a lot of free press now that they host big web stars.
Hopefully, Twitter will help them redesign their web page since it’s so Web 1.0. (If i didn’t know better, I’d say it was designed by an easy web wizard).

UPDATE: more info on this from Duncan Riley of TechCrunch.
(Via Twitter Blog.)
NTT is one of the 50 largest companies in the world.
