Summary

When Jack Dorsey, Biz Stone, and Ev Williams first met in San Francisco in 2005, few could have guessed how their creation of Twitter would transform online communications. A few years later, people worldwide were sending a billion tweets, every week-even more during events such as revolutions in the Mideast, or the 2011 earthquake and tsunami in Japan.
