BATB score: 3.5/10
RIP Twitter
Twitter CEOs: Jack Dorsey -> Evan Williams -> Dick Costolo -> Jack Dorsey (again)
Best friends, lots of alcohol on a boat, ego-power-play, frenemies, secret meetings, Bill Campbell, revenge, Oprah, and fame. Typical start-up storyline #tbh
Best to: find out about Twitter founders' conflicts via some online 10-minute-read bullet-point snippets
Best for: nonfiction written in a fiction screenplay; honestly how did Nick Bilton know so much #CCTV?
BATB score: 3.5/10
(for the 3 key players in the Miss Twitter Challenge)
+0.5 for Noah Glass who thought of the name "Twitter" but that didn't matter much.
