You can tweet about your breakfast, or about your dog, or just about any number of mundane things, but you can also use Twitter to tweet about your business, your passions and just about anything that’s important to you. That’s why Twitter is used by businesses, non-profit organizations, celebrities and people who want to reach a vast number of people immediately.

“Twitter has emerged as a key channel not only for individuals who want to exchange ideas and information, but for businesses, too,” says Milstein. “We’re proud that the first edition of The Twitter Book helped tens of thousands of people and companies make great use of the medium. But Twitter tends to change a lot. So the new edition is completely updated, with one hundred percent fresh examples, plus tips and tools that will let readers get the most out of Twitter as it works today.”
