How Twitter helps him run NewsCred: "The concept of word of mouth takes a new meaning on Twitter. I routinely tweet about things happening at our company, challenges, opportunities, or interesting news about NewsCred. The day of our launch we had hundreds of people tweeting and retweeting about all the press we were getting, and it causes a snowball effect."

Recent tweet: "For those asking if we did a deal with Yahoo, I swear we have no idea how we ended up on the My Yahoo page!"
