Social Traffic Referrals
by Christian Brucculeri I was reading Fred Wilson’s awesome blog the other day and I was inspired but what he said at the #140 conference: “social media, led by Facebook and Twitter, will surpass Google in driving traffic to many websites sometime in the next year.” I believe this will happen as well.

The distance between zero and one
by Christian Brucculeri A friend of mine once told me that this distance between zero and one is infinitely greater than the distance between one and two. I completely agree and, in homage to this statement, I am filling this space with my first blog post. I’ve been holding off publishing anything due to the…
