About This Book

GQ named him Nerd of the Year and TIME put him on their list of most influential people in the world. Biz Stone means different things to different people, but to all he is known as the creative, effervescent, funny and remarkably savvy co-founder of Twitter--the social media platform that singlehandedly changed the way the world works. THINGS A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME: Confessions of the Creative Mind In THINGS A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME, Biz tells fascinating, pivotal, and personal stories from his life and career, from Google to the founding and running of Twitter and beyond, sharing the knowledge that he has gained about the nature and importance of ingenuity in our world. He will teach his readers how to think creatively and how to know a good idea when they encounter one. In Biz's world: · Opportunity can be manufactured. · Great work comes from abandoning a linear way of thinking in favor of drawing unexpected connections. · Be as creative as you like, as often as you want because you can never run out of it. · Asking questions is free. Do it! In this book, Biz addresses failure, vulnerability, over-ambition, and ignorance, and what we can learn from negative experiences (he's had many). He also shares the wisdom that other luminaries like Starbucks CEO Howard Shultz and President Bill Clinton have passed along to him. Whether you come to THINGS A LITTLE BIRD TOLD ME for behind-the-scenes stories about the nascent days of Twitter, for advice on how to think more creatively in your endeavors, or for wisdom and principles from one of the most successful businessmen of the new century, Biz has you covered.
