Warren Buffett Joins Twitter: What Twitter Had To Say About It

Famously tech-shy Warren Buffett has opened a Twitter account. Buffett  abstained from investing in technology companies in the '90s when firms like Amazon and eBay were first exploding onto the scene — he explained that he simply couldn't understand their business models.

It looks like Buffett has had a change of heart, registering the @WarrenBuffett handle earlier today. The account garnered 1,000 followers within a minute, and by the afternoon, Buffett was already boasting 32,000 users.

What was Buffett's first tweet? The 82-year-old "Oracle of Omaha" issued the following as his first missive:

"Warren is in the house."

He certainly is.

Here are some of our favorite tweets regarding Buffett's entry into the Twittersphere:

"Good quote this morning: "What the wise man does in the beginning, the fool does in the end." Sounds like Warren Buffett? You'd be right," wrote @westwingreport.

"Wow, @WarrenBuffett is up to 150K+ followers in HOURS. All folks thinking they might get written into the will," wrote @only4rm.

"Read my new essay on why women are key to America's prosperity," wrote @warrenbuffett.

Okay, that last one was pretty random.
