  • and what are you still doing here? go outside! go on a date!

  • Very interesting. It would be even more compelling if we knew where all that information came from. Maybe they Googled it. LOL.

  • Guess how I found this video, I saw somebody face to face, we talked and they showed me this. True story.

  • Why did this come up when i searched for Chris Brown? WTF

  • @psych0naut666 Social media 'found you' lol

  • a great strategy can create monetary value out of social media - depends how you integrate and convert likers or friends to customers:....way to go

  • I heard sweden gonna have social network too I have read about it. It says Socialmist gonna launch on the web very soon. But I don't know when. The new CEO for Socialmist says that website are much better than Facebook :o so I agree what they says. Actually tbh I heard Facebook have a lot of problem so that's good for me I don't join facebook :P

  • i'd actually enjoy this video if i didnt have to pause to read, i know your talking about the future and all that, but we're still humans, our reading hasn't increased by 600million %

  • i'm doing this for homework, and i cbf doing this shit.

  • Good video and facts well presented. However there is a downside, much of what is posted is just noise, and endless clutter. Social media is time consuming and often the time would be better spent building real networks instead of virtual ones.

  • @ALDAarchitects I believe too in real networks, come in Volos Greece I will pay the beers.. can you do it ?

  • @kiriakost1969 Would love to be in Greece rather than cold and rainy Ireland, but must work like a slave to pay for the mistakes of Bankers!

  • youtube .com/watch?v=0JaDiBiAnv8 new 2011 did you know about media

  • SOCIALGO

  • Interesting facts but now how the hell do you get noticed amongst all of those billions of words and pictures, a drop in the ocean. It still boils down to the same thing. Telly was the new platform years ago and this is still the same the more money you have to throw at the ads on social media the more you will get noticed. The principals the same the platform has changed..that's all :)

  • Great video, social media just referenced by Sir Tom Hunter in a talk to the Chamber of Commerce. Jeremy Webb, webbactivemedia.

  • Check My Channel for 100s of Videos on Social Media Marketing

  • am I the only one who feels strange listening to that music ?

  • facebook/twitter/tumblr open in another tab

  • Thanks for sharing these social media statistics

  • Wow! Better check our social media humor on my chanell, you'll enjoy it! =)

  • When will this be viewable in USA?

  • Great video, thanks for the upload!

  • @peakdavid It's in reference to global populations and millennials as a subset. People are still not getting this.

  • @jumpp10 I speak English evidently - why post that?

  • @quentinvandamme Nice try.

  • @renelleEP Hardly. Try again.

  • @tntsupporter My point remains irrespective.

  • @MyPLima Nope.

  • @tntsupporter My point remains, irrespective of that comment.

  • What program do you use for the animation?

  • nice to see welcome written in Hindi

  • I fear the future. We're all taking this as easy as pie and ice cream... Think of it: A single network... One single network is taking away true relationships.

    They're quite useful tools, but remeber: we're here to use them, not to be used.

  • Great video, a good reason why everyone should be using social media for their business!

  • What these statistics really show is that we are becoming enslaved to technology.

  • This video is a nice way to promote Social Networks for a company: youtube.com/user/EADStv (video Paris Air Show... Follow us)

  • A video about the new revolution, containing music from 1999 lol

  • @StfnEgbrts So..? Its written in a language which has been around since 450 AD.

  • Awesome±!

  • Great video but is the book worth buying? It gives great facts about social media in which I agree but it doesnt say what the book / product they are selling will do for you..

  • Great video. I love the seemless story it tells that is DEFINITELY the truth!

  • This was presented at our Job Search group. the message is if you want a job, you need to be on social media.

  • It is all good except the part about Wikipedia....the site is not accepted even by online universities as a credible source.

  • @MissBelikov123 but yet its aceppted by normal uni's

  • i hate this video it lies black ops is better

  • awesome

  • definetly in need of a 2011 version please thanks

  • I love this video (though I think we need a 2011 refresh), but it's still relevant today! Quick question though, does anyone know the software used to make videos like these? Cheers

  • @waynebaxter1

    Adobe After Effects. Probably in combination with Adobe Photoshop or/and Adobe Illustrator.

  • I knew its so true even before i realize

  • Love the videos! Keep it up! Just a Q: How can one make videos like this? Can someone recommend me software?

  • @thedac85 adobe afterFX, final cut pro, cinema4d

  • I love these Socialnomics videos. Amazing work, as always, Erik!

  • Amazing video, Internet is definitely the future, for all and everything !

    PS: Little mistake at the beginning , "Welcome" in French is "Bienvenue" with an "e" at the end !

  • watched this in our global citizenship class. amazing facts and statistics i'm sharing it.

  • Excellent Video

    Follow me on Twitter!

    Twitter dot com / netmillionaire :-)

  • which factoid caught your attention the most?

  • This is TRULY Green Age News WINNER !

    Love Anti Social Media !

  • This is TRULY GreenAgeNews WINNER !

    Love Anti Social Media !

  • MUSIC...BAM BAM!!!

  • Scary message if you're not willing to embrace the message and if you sell something it's deadly!

  • wait a minute, youtube isn't a search engine it just HAS a search engine.

    I mean that's like saying the ps3 is a web browser.

    Or that google is an image finder.

    Simply because something is built into the system does not make it it's core system.

  • Most of the digital natives that these statistics are about have not even seen this video...just saying it's a little dramatic. Also using fear as a motivator to "encourage" businesses to engage the online community is like telling a fat girl that dress shopping with prom queens is really fun. We should be teaching people how to engage not overwhelming them with anxiety about their (lack of) involvement.

  • REDDIT!

  • Respond to this video... 

  • This is one of the must watch videos for any business owner that wants to use social media to promote their business.

  • this video should be s howed for all new media students!

  • perfect!

  • I think the people who made this have a very self serving business agenda. It indeed has distorted and false facts. The big picture seems correct and the planet will be changing in new ways because of all this communication technology.

    Plus side- Revolution by good people who are not included in their countries economic system.

    Negative side- World Web War I (WWWI) (pick any two countries who are at odds and just imagine how it might escalate)

    just some thoughts...

  • some of these facts are pretty questionable - just like everything else in the world of social media

  • The reason I "dislike" this is nicely captured by the fake-fact at 3:17 into the video. 90% of people do *NOT* skip ads with TiVo or DVR because those two technologies don't penetrate 90% of homes owning televisions. The correct phrasing might be that 90% of people with TiVo will skip xx% of ads but that's not what the video claims.

  • @perelgut how doesnt it? it says 90% of people skip ads via TiVo/DVR "via" would insinuate that, that 90% is only achieved by the people who HAVE TiVo/DVR. I mean it isn't fake. But HORRIBLY worded

  • My teacher showed this to us today, I thought it was totally awesome. Most of the kids did. I recommend showing your students.

  • why bother showing this to my students, they knew it before I did

  • We are turning into The Borg.

  • Striking fact is that Social Media has overtaken Pornography as the most frequent Internet activity. Although some might argue they are one and the same.

  • @nicheprof

    thank you for providing my with the best laugh i will undoubtedly have all day.........&, for the record, i agree

  • Hey #UN#,

    This was a pretty cool vid.

  • Why can I not view it on my iPad? I keep getting a message that the owner of this video does not allow iPad viewing...

  • That is an awesome video...

    

  • what program was used to create this video?

  • 90% of people skip ads vis TiVo/DVR ... it's no fucking wonder. We're constantly bombarded by all that crap! Don't these ad companies even bother to look at these statistics? Christ!

  • @Algonkin1964 They do look at the statistics, that's why most ads now feature more writing than ever before, even if you fast forward through the ad, you can still get a gist about what the product is.

  • @moviemaker331 Good point... very good point!

  • I found it interesting that they showed a picture of an actual book at the end. Shouldn't they have shown a link to the e-book on Amazon or maybe the cover page on a Kindle?

  • Hi My name is Ashley Franklin and I am a Student in Dr.Strange EDM310 class, and I have chosen this video as my blog assignment.I really just wanted to share with my bloggers what big steps Technology has made.

  • Great. Millions more with a dumb look in their eyes.

  • Anyone knows what software you neeed to make a video like this?

  • crazy stuff!! great video!!!

  • It all becomes noise and after the new shine wears off it will be just like the first Atari games. Wow.

  • thanks @heatherliciouss that's my only point. the soiclal media rage seems a little over the top at times.

  • @ozeguru Fantastic video on social media what about local marketing and google places?

  • Really good video explain what is happening in the real world @fredgillen

  • A police officer actually showed this to the freshman and it was regarding sexting. How fast things can circulate with new technology. This video is somewhat of an eye-opener... I have never sexted or but I feel sorry for the people who do when there are so many ways to be found out and tormented.

  • Wow all this technology and the average person is still dumb as dog shit.

  • @shagster1970 At least in America. I should know, I live here!  :|

  • @shagster1970 All this technology is the reason the average person is dumb as dog shit.

  • @shagster1970 It's becoming a CAUSE as to why people are dumb as shit.

  • @shagster1970 80% of the people think they're over-average. 100% of the people that read your comment thought it didn't apply to them.

  • @shagster1970 well true, but the "average" person is only comparatively 'dumb', as without these 'dumb' people there wouldn't be intelligent people, and the intelligent people of today will one day be considered dumb as the human race in a progressive race!

  • @cjbennett88

    you are retarded

  • Ok, so why am I still asked to hold if I am using a rotary phone? Forget it, maybe I should just upgrade.

  • Do you think social media will replace face to face communication?

  • @HomefireofSonoma Not entirely but it will lower it i think.

  • @HomefireofSonoma it wil never replace face to face communication but it helps a lot in communication because putting a message on twitter it much more easier then making a phone call and it's cheaper! But nothing can compare to face to face communication!

  • You really don't know a fad until its passed.

    The real question is .. what will replace social media?

  • Error: "years to reach 50 million users" should be weighted by population (e.g., if there were 7B people in the world when radio was released, then how many years would it take to reach 50M users?). When my [older] colleagues see this and pick up on the error, they'll try to blow off the whole video, because they're scared of change.

  • Brilliant.

  • 校内 和 人人 亮了~~~~~~~~~~

  • The link is broken in the discription, the bracket is adding itself.

  • Hi Erik,

    This is one of the most effective videos I've seen on the importance of social media. May I play it during my presentations with full credits? Thank you.

  • I dislike how quick this video was, it is information overload. I know you (THE AUTHORS) might not want to take a trade off of video dynamicism/excitement vs. how well information is taken in but I REALLY disliked having to pause the video so much. Don't get me wrong I'm not old or anything just an average-slow reader

  • min 1:47 "Imagine what this means for bad customer experiences!!!!!!" ... I don't get it

  • @ThePipinFonz If I had a bad experience at say Walmart and I had my Yelp or foursquare app open I could tag myself at the said store. I could almost instantaneously badmouth the store for treating me oh so wrong and people could see my tip or review when they go to look up places to go in the future.

  • i love the music, and the stats, then it occurred to me that this video was uploaded 10 months ago, these stats could be a year old, what do they look like now?

  • youtube.com/watch?v=IbnmJSFrVi­M is far better

  • I've passed this video on to all my networking groups. Awesome video. I'm an artist/painter and my husband and I left our corporate management jobs to run my art publishing business. If it weren't for social media, our business wouldn't be thriving as well as it is today. Yay, SM!

  • «Social Media has overtaken pronography as the #1 activity on the web» LOLLL

  • We're all in for one heck of a ride.... it is indeed revolutionary and so exciting!

  • i saw it this morning in my lect and think that it is AWESOME !

  • Interesting, but wikipedia is NOT very accurate. It's been proven time and time again, like the guy who did the experiment with that French composer who died. I've done several myself, and the bogus data is STILL to this day, three years later intact.

  • our teacher showed my class this, simply amazing! so interesting

  • wow very very informative. great video.

  • what happens in vegas gets posted on youtube... lolz.. stolen comment from, oh shit... facebook, but i loled

  • INSPIRED ME I LOVE LIFE

    I LOVE YOU VIDEO MAN!!!

  • Love it learn an lot

  • Great video! May I ask what program this was created in? Hoping to gain some video editing skills...any suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

  • Pure BS!..Nobody buys stuff on social media sites...Lots of traffic but no buying.

  • @truthsewer

    Ever heard of Amazon? Second life? Facebook games? A lot of individuals purchase items from these sites. And yes, all of them are social media. it's bigger than you think.

  • It is totally amazing to me as to what SEÑORITA LIMÓNITA™ has been able to create and accomplish on Facebook and several other social media sites. She has shared the amazing development of her new margarita mix in just a few short months. The word is spreading like wildfire!

  • Comment removed

  • Brilliantly done video - right to the point - Fabulous job.

  • Socialnomics can socialsuckme. I agree not a fad, but these are borderline made up facts clearly targeted to sell a book. Social media is doomed to progress into a downward spiral of complete unreliability due to corporate and individual gree and manipulation. Basically, it's unfortunate companies can make money off social media because you know that greed will know no bounds.

  • Yes social media is changing the way we connect with people...forever..great video!

  • Unless you know your source (personally), the content is meaningless. ???.

    5. "Do you like what (bloggers) are saying about your brand" What exactly does jumping on the social media bandwagon afford me to do about what people are saying about my brand? Please, be specific.

    6. Here's a good one- how r products going to find me via social media? I'm assuming that the products that r finding me are ones that I actually am looking for, not merely more spam. Spam isn't exactly revolutionary.

  • @wb2jbj2b3

    5. IMO, listening to what people have to say about your brand can be beneficial because you find out how you can better cater to your customers, though this doesn't apply to every company - depends on customer demographic and their level of SM activity.

    6. I think the idea of products finding people is possible given that facebook has information on your interests, banks and mobile companies have info on purchase history so they can better predict your needs and make suggestions.

  • If everyone at that company were facebooking and texting and social media-ing like a wildfire won't make a whit of difference.

    3. I don't see any correlation between being tech savy and being able to perform any sort of damage control. People are going to say what they want and noone is listening.

    4. "25% of search results for the worlds top 20 largest brands are links to user-generated content" This user generated content is merely another source of spam. ...

  • An interesting jumble of unrelated statistics. Someone, please explain:

    1. Kindle, Wikipedia, and Google are social media? This promo would have us think so. If I am wrong, please explain.

    2. "50% of the mobile internet traffic in the UK is for facebook.. imagine what this means for bad customer experiences" Is this suggesting that if you have a bad experience with a company or their products that there will be a wildfire of flame facebook posts? ...

  • @wb2jbj2b3

    2. Yeah i think that's the idea. People definitely trust what their friends say over what companies try to advertise so if a bunch of their friends are posting "this company sucks" on fb, they probably won't be willing to buy the products/services from that company.

  • GREAT video. What video software did you use to make this? Thanks.

  • We have taken that exact message you gave and based our company foundation on it. MoveInSpecials com - Find the Best Deals on the Apartments you Love.

  • Hey, i am one of your moms students, she showed us this video in class and i thought it was really cool how you linked everything toghether. Godd video! :)

  • what's the next BIG THING ?

  • Thanks for the info!

  • I would like to know were you find the percentage about 14% trusts advertisement and 78% trust social media peers.

    I would like to know so i can use this for my internship i am on.

    please give me a link to the research

  • This video was delivered clearly, and effectively. It was never boring, and it is quite enlightening. Who can guess where "Socialnomics" will take us in ten years, or so?

  • oh dear...that was possibly one of the scariest videos i have ever seen! educational though!

  • Dang, I wish I could be a citizen of Sweden with a click of a button.

  • fuck facebook

  • I dont know why but im kinda scared

    

  • If you are a teacher... this is a must-show to all your students!!

  • @genebug77 Yeah haha we got showed this today aye ;p

  • @genebug77 you made my teacher show our class this, THANK YOU FOR THE FREE PERIOD !

  • @genebug77 my teacher totally did show this.

  • @JCSjelde same here

  • @genebug77 im 16 years old, canadian, i speak french and we saw that in english class.

  • @genebug77 yeah the problem is all teachers show it.. all the teachers think they found something awesome and they show it to us. while we allready saw it 3 times allready that same day !

  • Nice Job, message delivered loud and clear!

  • great video speaks for itself really were are moving up in the world at a rate faster than we could have ever imagined

  • Comment removed

  • Truly amazing where we are today with Social Media. Great video...and a reminder that we really have no other choice but to get on board if we hope to experience success in our lives and our businesses. And heck, it's fun! And a great way to connect quickly and easily!

  • @cyberjob - great comp, can anyone say viral?
