http://www.ted.com Kevin Allocca is YouTube's trends manager, and he has deep thoughts about silly web video. In this talk from TEDYouth, he shares the 4 reasons a video goes viral. (This is the first talk posted from an amazing TEDYouth event. Many others will come on line next month as part of our TED-Ed launch. We can't wait ...)

Yeah, and back then, YouTube loved him. "Wow that kid can really sing!" But now that he's successful, everyone hates him. Funny how that works.

So basically you're telling me that Justin Bieber is the future of all entertainment. Great.

Because 'anyone' can do it, thanks to the web, it remains just as hard as before the web, because it's impossible to stand out. So you still need Managers, marketing budgets and record companies. Nothing has changed, really.

Jesus, if the videos he showed are the sort of "entertainment" that will define tomorrow then when we may as well start launching the nukes now. Mediocrity reigns brothers and sisters and only you can stop it!

Great video clip. I found this coz my mate came to be a lady-magnet - and he's obese He went from a no-one into being astounding. He pretended he didn't realize. He then explained it to me while he was drunk. He mentioned he learned from the Jake Ayres Master Attraction Formula. Google it if you wish to know about it... He's dating a beauty... Where are the best movies on Youtube?
