Twitter’s @EarlyBird Soars: Launches with Disney

Prior to the July 4th Holiday, reports that Twitter would soon launch a dedicated stream for special and promotions hit the web. Today, Twitter announced that the @earlybird account takes flight and Disney goes along for the maiden voyage.

@earlybirdoffers Twitter-exclusive deals in entertainment, fashion, technology, beauty, travel and more. For a limited time, @earlybird and Disney Pictures will offer Twitter users a special “buy one, get one free” deal on tickets to “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice,” a new feature film from Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films that opens in theaters today.

This is the second time Twitter has worked with Disney to launch new advertising initiatives. Last month, the interactive duo introduced the Promoted Trends concept with a Promoted Trend for the Walt Disney Pictures / Pixar Animation film “Toy Story 3.”
