CEO and founder of Lijit Networks talks about his lessons as an entrepreneur

Like many companeis, Lijit Networks, which was bought last month by Federated Media, had its own pivots throughout its time as a stand-alone company.

Lijit Networks founder and CEO Todd Vernon sat down with me recently to talk about the lessons he's learned building the company and why Twitter CEO Dick Costolo played a big role in the direction he took it.
