Yesterday, we reported that Twitter was close to acquiring AdGrok, the Y Combinator-backed keyword bidding platform. Today, the company has confirmed the move with a blog post, "@AdGrok Is Going To @JoinTheFlock". But as we noted in an update to our post yesterday, things are a little bit more complicated than they appear. You see, one of AdGrok's founders and its CEO, Antonio Garcia-Martinez, is not joining Twitter and has instead taken a job at rival Facebook. Both Garcia-Martinez's Facebook and LinkedIn confirm that he has accepted a role as a product manager at Facebook this month (though we're hearing he may have accepted the position in April). There, he'll be working on the Facebook Ads team. In other words, yes, he'll be competing (at least in some regard) with his former colleagues.
