Unveiling Apple's new music-focused social network Ping in September, chief executive Steve Jobs described it as "sort of like Facebook and Twitter meet iTunes."
Facebook and Ping have yet to meet but Twitter and Ping got together overnight.
Twitter announced an integration with Ping that allows users who link their accounts to share previews of their favourite tunes with their followers on the micro-blogging service.
Jobs unveiled Ping in September as part of iTunes 10, the latest version of its online entertainment store.
Ping lets users view photos and videos of their favourite musicians, receive information about concert dates and connect with other users to discuss albums and songs and make musical recommendations.
An expected Ping integration with Facebook has never materialised, however, despite months of negotiations between the technology titans.
