Description: Jonathan Yarmis's look into disruptive technologies and how they're transforming the way we do business, relate to customers, collaborate and otherwise function on a daily basis
Twitter announced its first results as a public company yesterday, and Wall Street did not respond well. I never get caught up in quarter-to-quarter financial results on their own merits, instead preferring to look at the bigger picture.
