Is Apple Twittering?

According to Macworld, Apple has started their own Twitter account which covers the iTunes trailers.  We aren't able to ascertain whether or not this is officially Apple's Twitter page and we do recollect that someone started an Apple Youtube Page which was thought to be an official Apple page.  It turned out to be a hoax.  This seems slightly more legit because there is a link from the apple.com/trailers page.

If I remember correctly, there was a link from the iTunes trailer page to the twitter account, so I would assume it is Apple

Actually I saw the the twitter button is on the Apple site 2 days ago. So I am assuming its real.

Didn't they created facebook profiles for promoting the 2nd gen iPod nano?
I think it's the same here

Anyone found the Apple link to @ApplePR? Until then I've taken matters into my own hands, but I think the results may be biased.

looks like they were fake - twitter has suspended the accounts.

the applepr was just a feed of the apple hot news rss

@ApplePR is reset to 8 followers and full defaults. Ditto for @appleconcierge
