The math of
viral _
^In the old days of media buying, Value = Cost
^Viral marketing attempts to get value far and beyond cost
^While cost is still constant, value grows exponentially
^Post critical mass crossover/ Tipping point, the network starts paying
^The fundamental flaw underlying both Metcalfe's and Reed's laws is in
the assignment of equal value to all connections or all groups
