- "quit bastardizing the term ROI and using cryptic, fluffy interpretations of it in order to avoid admitting that you don’t understand it, or to dodge the whole measurement and accountability issue altogether.

- "Ok, as I stated before I’d like to see more services (Google Reader, Delicious, Digg, etc.) incorporated adding a larger sample size based on my followers on those services. So I’ll demonstrate that by moving on to how this could be achieved by also applying this additional logic for videos.
