We first reported some weeks back that Twitter was on the lookout for a new European office and a number of cities were being considered.

Berlin and Dublin were rumored to be solid candidates but today The Sunday Telegraph is reporting that London has officially been chosen with Twitter execs considering locations in the West End and “Silicon Roundabout” in the East End of London.
