(MONEY.CNN) — Oops! Add this to the growing list of Twitter fails.
Twitter finance chief Anthony Noto appears to have accidentally tweeted a message that he intended to send privately. The presumed subject of the tweet? A potential acquisition by Twitter.
“I still think we should buy them. He is on your schedule for Dec 15 or 16 — we will need to sell him. i have a plan,” Noto’s message said.
The errant tweet set off a wave of speculation as to which company Noto was targeting, although few solid theories developed.
