Twitter has acquired small gear-sharing start-up Bagcheck, the companies announced today.

Bagcheck, which was founded by Sam Pullara and Luke Wroblewski, is a social network designed for gadget lovers who want to tell others about the products they use and why. Users aren't required to share only tech-related "bags," though, so anyone can discuss just about anything they use in their daily lives. And they do--members discuss everything from digital cameras to cooking utensils on the site.

Bagcheck will continue to be available for the time being, but "that could change in the future," a Twitter spokesperson told CNET in an e-mailed statement. Those who are concerned with the future of the site can export their bags, the company said.
