I appreciate the response! I did read The Tipping Point, but I think that concept is a little bit different. The Net Promoter Score doesn't necessarily rank your popularity on the web as a whole, but rather per each individual company. For example, you could be a promoter for Apple, but a detractor for Microsoft. Does that make sense? Check out the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_Promoter" rel="nofollow">Wikipedia page</a>. It's very insightful. Thanks, Brandon! I appreciate the response!

They showed different types of people a list of 100 last names and asked them to circle the last names of people who they know, or have known in the past. I guess the concept was that the more people you know, the more influential you are.<br><br>Regardless, there are a few companies that I can think of that would benefit by reading your paper. A lot of people just don't comprehend the scale of the Internet and the impacts (good or bad) that it can have on a business (online or off). It's amazing to think how different things were 10 years ago, and how things can change so fast in such a short period of time. The success of many companies will be based on their ability to adapt to those changes. Nice job Mike.
