This is the best news I have heard all month! Good for them they deserve a television deal. It is an amusing show made by people who have talent and really love making it.
I only hope this is a success and they are able to make a living off of it.

Hi Lux, PinkTweet here. Thanks for the kind words! We also hope to fare better than the other so-called "Porn 2.0" companies out there. We'll keep you posted, and anyone can let us know if you have feedback (porny or not) at http://pinktweet.com/pinktweet.
I agree that it sucks that they had their content deleted from some popular commercial web sites, but I'd hardly call it "censorship". I've been seeing a lot of that word thrown around in the last 24 hours, and it drives me up the wall any time people conflate real first amendment issues with simply having their content un-hosted by a commercial web site. I hear people get pissy SO OFTEN about having something they created removed from YouTube or Flickr or Facebook, every week there's some new abomination I'm supposed to be offended by.
Shouldn't people learn by now to stop using these platforms to host their content and just do things themselves? Why even try to waste one's time fighting with a company about how to interpret their Terms of Service?
@Furry Girl: Well, I think by definition it's a form of censorship--but that doesn't mean that Facebook/YouTube/Flickr/etc doesn't have everyright, as a private corporation, to remove/censor content they don't like.
And yeah, we should all be avoiding corporations that have shitty attitudes towards sex and promoting stuff ourselves--but for some people, the resources/access/skill set aren't there, and YouTube may be their only easy form of mass communication (which doesn't mean they have a right to it--but it still sucks when they're suspended).
@Lux Alptraum: I don't see it so much as censorship (a word which, in a lot of people's minds, is analogous to First Amendment issues) so much as Facebook etc are private clubs with rules that one must abide by in order to be a member and use their services. (Even when those rules are purposefully vague.)
While social networking/media sites' rules are stupid and sex-negative, and it does indeed suck for MTSS to have to hassle with it, I think it confuses the issue when these regular deletions are framed as "freedom of speech" issues. Not that your post here was doing that, but it's the general tone struck every time one of these things come up.
In my experience watching these issues unfold, it's actually not people who seem to lack resources/skills- it's quasi-"big name" internet/pink ghetto people who have been around a while and seemingly have the means/ability/existing web sites to host content themselves, they just prefer, for whatever reasons, the services of Flickr/Facebook/YouTube/Myspace. I grant you that it sucks if people who truly lack any other alternative get the boot, but off the top of my head, I can't think of when I've seen that.

Twitter whois: [whois.domaintools.com]
Twitpic whois: [whois.domaintools.com]
Unless twitter has a satellite office in Oklahoma. Though the Oklahoma thing might explain why they have an issue with porn stars.
