Viral Video Chart

About Viral Video Chart

Site tracking the most viral videos minute to minute. The homepage consists of the top 20 most viral videos of the day and is a constantly changing list, but when a site makes the top 20 it usually stays there for a few days... which says something. It tells me that video as media is harder to gain momentum with but once the ball is rolling it's also harder to stop. Hence the difference between Viral Video Chart and Digg. A huge story on Digg may only be there for a day whereas a hugely popular video on vMix might be there for 3 days.

We scan several million blogs a day to see which online videos people are talking about the most. We count the number of times each video is linked to and the number of times each video is embedded. Every morning, after we've had a cup of coffee, we publish a list of the 20 videos that generated the most buzz over the previous day. We reckon this is a pretty good yardstick of what's hot and what's not.

At the moment we only look for references to videos on the three most influential video sharing sites: YouTube, Google Video and MySpace. We plan to add more soon.

We also considered wiretapping your email and IM to see what you were talking about, but figured it was illegal.
