Managing a company is a lot different than starting a company. I think that's what Cohen is getting to here: he was good at growing the company in the beginning, but managing a company of 80 people is a completely different job description.

That article is full of gold:
2012 - Operating Expenses: $25 million, Revenue $14 million (that's an $11 million loss on paper)
For 2013, they're saying they'll need to hit 4x revenue growth in order to hit profitability?
Does that mean 4x the ads for their (fickle) userbase?
