Twitter has hired its first commerce chief — Nathan Hubbard, the former president of Ticketmaster, started at the company this week and will reportedly focus on enabling shopping via posts on the social network. According to Bloomberg, the company hopes to offer its brand partners tools for selling products inside tweets. "We're going to go to people who have stuff to sell and help them use Twitter to sell it more effectively," Hubbard said to Bloomberg. While at Ticketmaster, Hubbard had overseen a $75 million overhaul of the company's online services.
