IMGCAP(1)]As a follow-up to my earlier post, I did get to meet Biz Stone, the cofounder of Twitter, at Sage Summit.
It was awesome.
I even got my selfie.
[IMGCAP(2)]What’s even cooler is I think he gave the best keynote ever. He’s a regular kind of guy a business owner, who at one point was a small business owner. He’s had the same struggles I see my clients, and even myself, have in our everyday business lives. It just seemed appropriate that I share some of his thoughts that were captured via the Twitter feed. After hearing his keynote, this fangirl is only more in love with Twitter and its founder! Check it out:
