I love Jay Squires' approach to handing out advice. It made me feel like I was sitting in his living room and he was telling me stories that taught me things about Twitter, made it sort of painless.The book is a must-read for Twitter users who are still trying to figure it all out. I've been on Twitter for a couple of years, and this little book still managed to teach me a few things about how Twitter works.I've never met Jay in person, but his personality comes through loud and clear. Nothing technical or clinical about the information delivery.I've already begun to implement his advice on Twitter lists (which I did not understand at all before I read this book), and saw results within minutes. I sound like a commercial, "But wait. There's more. It slices...it dices..." Ha! But in the case of this book, it's true. There is more. Not only does Jay spill on how to build followers, but he elaborates on which kind of followers you want, and he backs it all up with sound philosophy on building a platform on Twitter. And he throws in a bit of Twitter history, for good measure.For the seasoned user, there might be nothing new, but for anyone who asks himself "what, why, or how" while they are using Twitter, this book is a good investment.
