Speaking at Digital Media Europe, a three-day conference taking place in London, Andy Wiedlin, BuzzFeed's chief revenue officer, today provided a behind-the-scenes look at how the site, which he said had 40 million unique users last month, operates.

"If you are an advertiser, stop interrupting people," he urged, arguing against banner ads.
