    As indyguidedotinfo correctly pointed out, it actually expires in October. The whois says the expiry date is 2009-10-03, which is October 3rd, 2009, not March 10th. That's what you get from dumb bloggers

    The only way you'd ever win such a case was if your last name was "twitter" and you were to use it as a non-profit type of site. Even then it would be awfully tough to win ownership of such a domain and probably not worth the trouble.

    If they lose the domain they should not be able to get it back. They need to make money and renew the domain

    You'd be asking for an immediate legal problem under trademark law if you attempted to snag a domain like this.

    Fun facts, never knew that Twitter.org was expired and that they didn't buy the whole domain package at the same time. I guess it was because like a few years back, it was just a side project. Hopefully now it will be different.

    I dont think a good website like twitter will go out of the internet world. There is no confirmed statement yet from twitter's webmaster.
