A new account called @event parrot has been created and it describes itself as a “Twitter Experiment”.

Event parrot works much like the @magicrecs account that recommends tweets and Twitter accounts to its followers through the direct messages.

It says “Follow me to receive the direct messages that help you keep up what’s happening in the world.” Users who follow the account have received direct messages about international and national news, repackaging tweets from news outlets.

Twitter-EventParrot

13,500 users have trusted that so far, and that number is growing fast. It’s impossible to know for sure if Twitter is actually behind the account, but it seems to be a real possibility–though @eventparrot has yet to be verified like @magicrecs.

Assuming @eventparrot is a Twitter experiment, it shows the company is hard at work developing ways to increase and retain its user base as Twitter’s initial public offering looms.
