Would love to hear some more feedback. http://denisbhancock.com/2009/01/16/the-next-step-in-applying-gladwell-tipping-point-theories-to-twitter-users/ <abbr><em>Denis’s last blog post..<a href="http://denisbhancock.com/2009/01/16/the-next-step-in-applying-gladwell-tipping-point-theories-to-twitter-users/" rel="nofollow">The next step in applying Gladwell/ Tipping Point theories to twitter users</a></abbr></em> Thanks for the link Suzemuse!
