Stuff like this makes me hate Facebook and Twitter (more than normal). Games stop posting official stuff to their websites and just put it on Twitter or Facebook. I know it's tough for some of them to understand, most of us aren't so self absorbed (Facebook) or care so much about mindless prattle (Twitter) that we spend time on these sites.

I use Twitter, mainly for buisness to be honest. Sure I chat with friends there as well but my Twitter account was originally made for work. Really no eaiser way to get quick info out, as well as recieve it.
Can understand that POV, however Blizzard generally does big writeups in blogs for lots of things. While I'm supprised this patch didn't have one it might tomorrow. It's really all marketing though.
But it's a great way to get info out fast. Very often they post the official patchnotes and info that the patch will go online during maintenance. I think twitter is a very good thing because all you need to keep up to date is follow the people and you get all the infos.
It's OK for "emergency" info...like server has crashed and they are aware of it.
But big announcements should always be posted on the official website first, then they can tweet their brains out informing people it was posted.
Tweet by Alex Mayberry (Lead Producer) confirming patch of tomorrow (today for some of us) so loot 2.0 HERE WE COME!
*feels a cold coming on for tomorrow*
If it is true, I guess I'll be melting down a lot of junk I was hoping to offload on the AH to clear my storage. It certainly won't sell now
