520    "Twitter seems like a perfect start-up success story. In 
       barely six years, a small group of young, ambitious 
       programmers in Silicon Valley built an $11.5 billion 
       business out of the ashes of a failed podcasting company. 
       Today Twitter boasts more than 200 million active users 
       and has affected business, politics, media, and other 
       fields in innumerable ways. Now Nick Bilton of the New 
       York Times takes readers behind the scenes with a 
       narrative that shows what happened inside Twitter as it 
       grew at exponential speeds. This is a tale of betrayed 
       friendships and high-stakes power struggles as the four 
       founders-Biz Stone, Evan Williams, Jack Dorsey, and Noah 
       Glass-went from everyday engineers to wealthy celebrities,
       featured on magazine covers, Oprah, The Daily Show, and 
       Time's list of the world's most influential people. 
       Bilton's exclusive access and exhaustive investigative 
       reporting-drawing on hundreds of sources, documents, and 
       internal e-mails-have enabled him to write an intimate 
       portrait of fame, influence, and power. He also captures 
       the zeitgeist and global influence of Twitter, which has 
       been used to help overthrow governments in the Middle East
       and disrupt the very fabric of the way people communicate"
