    Understanding what it is that makes people love certain types of content is definitely not an easy thing. My biggest takeaway from your video was the fact that what all viral videos have in common is their ability to bring people together around a any subject that produces an emotional response. Thanks for your help Dao.

      Kudos for the Video clip! Apologies for chiming in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you considered - Panhloe Dumbstruck Paramountcy (search on google)? It is a smashing exclusive product for make money promoting videos minus the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate at very last got excellent results with it.✔️

    This video actually explains a lot about Buzzfeed and similar sensational media. Rather than caring about the veracity or importance of the content distributed, Buzzfeed focuses on how said content affects people. It is this focus that leads many people like myself to get angry at the crap content they often publish, because as an analytical person, I care about the content, and I care when it's factually inaccurate or misleading. Buzzfeed just doesn't seem to care about this, because they're after the reactions they can get.

    The first viral phenomenon: the Nguyen surname among Vietnamese people.

  • @JimGriffOne
    @JimGriffOne 6 лет назад +44

    Exposure to an unusual experience gives the drive (at the psychological level) to share the experience with others. This is programmed into our very being, neurologically-speaking. Our neurology has evolved to have a drive to share possible dangers with the tribe - communication is key in protecting the tribe. However, in the modern context, we continue to communicate even though it isn't necessarily for survival. Our drive to communicate dangers has evolved into a drive to communicate any experience we deem the rest of the tribe *hasn't experienced yet.*
    The drive to "communicate information to others that they may not have experienced yet" can be seen in animals too. Dogs will bark when they see something unusual (a 'transient sensory phenomenon') such as seeing a squirrel after having not seen one for weeks/months. The very same drive to communicate unusual, and/or potentially dangerous things with the rest of the tribe IS the key to understanding how and why things go viral.

    Yea there is whole branch of social science called memetics dedicated to this and studying how information spreads and sticks around in a culture. And yes this is where the origin of a "meme" comes from. If often miss used now a days.

    • @angelic8632002
      @angelic8632002 6 лет назад +1

      Username Its not a new meaning though. Its a misinterpretation of it use since how its popularly used today is fairly close to its original purpose. Not a new meaning.
      What's your point even? I don't get the motivation behind your post.

    • @notead
      @notead 6 лет назад +1

      It is called semantic broadening, the meaning of the word has expanded to include more contexts. It doesn't matter that it's "close to its original [meaning]", you clearly see the distinction between the two meanings (otherwise you wouldn't have called it a misuse), making it a different definition of the word. I'm sorry you can't see the point, it's to explain how words change and that calling widely used new definitions a "misuse" is probably the result of a lack of understanding of how languages evolve.

    • @angelic8632002
      @angelic8632002 6 лет назад +1

      Username The issue here is that the original meaning of the word has gotten lost to the public concerning a very important subject.
      And to be frank I'm not quite following you. I understand that it *has* changed.
      Again what's the motivation for posting all this?
      PS: you might want to try coming off as less condescending next time if you actually care for people to take your argument you heart.

    • @notead
      @notead 6 лет назад +1

      The first meaning hasn't gotten lost, it was rarely used by the public in the first place, only in select academic circles of anthropological studies.
      The widespread use of the word meme to mean captioned pictures or whatever has not meant that anthropologists suddenly lack a word to describe an "idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture". This should infer that it is a semantic broadening. Calling it a misuse is not a good or correct description.
      "you might want to try coming off as less condescending next time"
      "What's your point even?"
      Likewise.

    BuzzFeed has been very good at deconstructing the hunger of the internet audience for a an easy to consume, snackable content. Personally, I am not a fan, but I recognise the value in doing this for marketing purposes. They have made use of the tech + consumer habits + psychology and ended up with a relevant format. Marin
