Review

'Hilarious' --Virgin Hotline

Product Description

100 key moments from history are picked and reported in tweets - those 140-character maximum bite-sized chunks that are so familiar to Twitter users - and anyone who has read a newspaper in the last six months - today. But this book is more than just a straight re-telling of history...Twitter is perhaps the most potent and versatile phenomenon yet thrown up by the web and the authors have created a fresh, hilarious, original and just occasionally (sort of) educational book which will take full advantage of the extraordinary popularity of Twitter. INCLUDES A FOREWORD BY STEPHEN FRY.

Hilarious 8 Dec 2009

By Mr. David R. Brown

I Brought this little book after hearing an extract on BBC Radio 2 and its Hilarious perfect for when you have 5 minutes to read one or two of the historical facts (some are longer then others).

If your a fan of The Now Show you will love this.

Great christmas stocking filler also.
