This was an enjoyable read and I would recommend it. thanks for letting me have an advance copy. I'm new to this author.

If you love or are indifferent towards this site, this book is for you. It's captivating, informing, and will make you look at the entire world of social media differently. The authors did a great job with research and contemporary comment.

This was better than I thought it was going to be considering it is about Twitter. Thank heavens it isn't about some of its infamous users. It is more about the creation and a few of its popular features, some of which I am not used to or familiar with as a user. I am a part-time user myself because I don't know how to do long posts, so I keep to Facebook and Instagram.
The author of this book kept pushing the popular features. As a biography about Twitter as one of the main social media platforms, this was so-so and a little flat. More about Twitter's creation could have been discussed. It was still an interesting insight to Twitter but I would still recommend it since most people are on at least one or multiple social media platforms.
Thanks to Netgaley, the author and publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

This is not so much a book as is is a really long research about Twitter. The authors don’t tell interesting stories, they conduct interviews to prove a point about a specific feature of Twitter.
This book is long from the very first few pages. I stayed in it for the full length but found myself wanting it to be over each time I started back in.
I recommend this book if you have to write an article, a paper or have a desire to read about Twitter however you might get the same info from Wikipedia.

A great biography of Twitter, taking us back to the early days of the micro blogging platform. Of particular interest is how user behaviour, and feedback shaped 3 of their biggest features.

This was a delightful, fun read. For anyone unfamiliar with Twitter or interested in social media history of the platform, it's a quick and easy read that covers some of the major features on the platform and how they came to be. It was interesting to read so much back story about the early development of Twitter. The authors call it a biography of Twitter, which I agree is an accurate description of this book.
