    Twitter is a platform that you either get, or you don’t.

The latest example of this is from a Twitter user nicknamed “Zola” whose unbelievable tale of a trip gone so very wrong in 150 tweets – which promptly viral. But, this isn’t an isolated phenomenon. This week, Toni is joined by two of MRY’s Twitter aficionados: Chief Marketing Officer, @dberkowitz and Vice President, Global Brand Development, @vishalsapra. --- You can learn about the Zola incident here: http://www.thefader.com/2015/10/28/zola-twitter-story
