Twitter makes about $25M yearly from search deals, and has a more sustainable business than TwitPic. When can we kill the meme that twitter and facebook are not making money or are not profitable?
revenue took off when they moved from Adsense to other ad promoters For those of you struggling with adsense, take note.
When is a good time to switch, and where to? Does it make sense for smaller sites, too?
Every once in a while, check in and make sure that your redirects and minimums are making sense. If you do this, then you'll be capturing a pretty high CPM. To my knowledge, almost all networks support this structure, except for AdSense, which doesn't redirect and therefor goes at the end of the chain.
I may be mistaken but no where in this article does it say that Noah Everett makes $5million a year. It does say "revenue projections: $3-4 million" and "#1 – have a company worth 8 figures by 24, #2 – have a company generating 7 figures/year in revenue by 25"
No you're correct, just a typical Mixergy puff-piece line.

Of course the other factor: Twitter: funding $160m, you say rev $25m Twitpic: funding $0, rev $5m So I think twitpic comes out pretty fantastically well.
That's daft. Funding isn't a liability (in the financial sense), and those numbers don't say anything about growth prospects.

It's about $25 Million a year.

I live in Charleston and have met Noah a few times (nice guy, incidentally). If you come visit, you will see why someone would want to live here pretty quickly.
I meant no disrespect to SC. I've actually heard Charleston is a nice example of "New Urbanist" housing development and the southern charm and warm weather is hard to beat. I just thought it was really funny that he cited the Patriot movie as a reason to move there. I like a lot of silly movies, but never thought to relocate because of them!
It's likely he was intrigued by the place because of the movie, checked it out, liked it and decided to move.
I'm sure he didn't head for the airport when the credits rolled.

When they go public and we can see the balance sheets and not just press releases.

In the context of an interview with a tiny private company built on a clearly much bigger private company, I don't think your comment makes much sense.

It was a direct answer to your question which was explicitly about fb + twitter. What's not to get?
This is my first time seeing MixergyNOTES, and I must say I really enjoy this concise cliffsnotes version of the interview. I was able to take in all the key points within 5 minutes' time.
