Twitter acquires Bagcheck

Bagcheck had so much promise :(. The UI was so elegantly designed and there are still bits of it that I'm trying to pull apart for my own designs.<p>At the end of the day though, the engagement just wasn't there. You would go on there a few times, check out a couple of bags, maybe create one or two and then never come back. It's sad it didn't work out but the founders are all insanely talented people and I'm sure whatever they go on to do next, it will also be awesome.

Quite interesting they went for one of the smallest ones in this sphere and not Pinterest: <a href="http://siteanalytics.compete.com/bagcheck.com+pinterest.com+svpply.com/" rel="nofollow">http://siteanalytics.compete.com/bagcheck.com+pinterest.com+...</a> - also similar is thefancy.com.

Annoys me when i can't create an account on a site without a twitter or facebook account. Not everybody uses these services.

Looks like just a talent acquisition of one developer. The other co-founder, Luke, is not even joining Twitter. If I would to guess, the acquisition is sub $500,000. Any other guesses?

Is this a talent acquisition, or does Twitter plan to roll this into their site somehow?

Wish I had come across BagCheck before. It looks like a great site!
