Neither did Biz. humans don’t invent issues on the net. they only extend on an idea that already exists.”
Despite the entire assurance of Twitter’s upward push, Nick Bilton of The manhattan Times is the first journalist to inform the entire story—a gripping drama of betrayed friendships and highstakes power struggles. The 4 founders—Evan Williams, Biz Stone, Jack Dorsey, and Noah Glass—made a dizzyingly speedy transition from usual engineers to wealthy celebrities. They fought one another bitterly for funds, impact, exposure, and control as Twitter grew higher and extra robust. eventually all of them misplaced their grip on it.

Bilton’s remarkable entry and exhaustive reporting have enabled him to write down an intimate portrait of 4 pals who by chance replaced the area, and what they all realized alongside the way.
