Book Review – All A Twitter by Tee Morris

Earlier this year I was introduced on Twitter to Tee Morris (@teemonster) by my good friend Annette Holland (@daNanner).  The next week I had a phone call with Tee to advise him on some career and branding issues.  He turned out to be a really great guy and even asked me to contribute my two cents for his book, All a Twitter.  The book became available last week and, low and behold, I made the cover (along with a bunch of other Twitter users).  But still!

And what a great book!  I learned a ton from this book (and I teach Twitter classes!).  Tee has created a perfect guide for both personal and business users into Twitter’s world of microblogging and network building.  Even advanced users will find new and useful nuggets in this entertaining read, and will catch themselves nodding along while thinking, "Yes, exactly!".   "Welcome to the local coffee house that never closes"  Yes, exactly!
