It sounded straightforward enough To better understand what makes people share videos, I turned to Judith Donath of MIT, who studies online social networks She argues that the factors driving people to share stuff over the web are not that different from the reasons apes pick bugs out of each other's fur: it's a way of GV soạn đề: Chí Châu establishing social bonds Other researchers have argued that in human societies, language especially gossip - has taken on the social function of such grooming Sharing videos via email or within social networks is just the next step, Donath argues "Sharing online is tantamount to small talk," she says "It's a little gift of information It shows I’m thinking of you'." Video sharing is also a way of making a statement "In addition, people use videos as a way of showing their position in the 'information-technology ecology'," Donath says "A video reflects on the person who sends it." In other words, people will pass on a video if they think it's cool because it makes them look cool too I have friends and colleagues who are cool, so I quizzed them for inspiration Eventually, we hit upon a winning idea I called it Pet Teach Science The aim is to demonstrate tricky concepts ranging from quantum physics to chemical structure with the help of man’s best friend and other furry companions The next question was what to film for the first episode For what I had in mind, a degree of canine discipline was required, so I contacted a group of dog trainers They agreed to help, and last month we made a film using 16 of their dogs to illustrate the structure of the atom Some of the animals acted as the protons and neutrons in the nucleus, while the rest circulated to mimic the electron cloud A few days of shamelessly begging all my friends and family to disseminate the video resulted in fewer than 1,000 hits The big breakthrough came after a tip from Michael Wesch, an anthropologist who studies the behaviour of visitors to YouTube One of the key bits of advice he gave me was to send the video to a so-called "sneezer"- a media outlet or blogger that can quickly disseminate your video to a large number of people "Almost every viral has a catalyst moment at which it has a big leap of, say, 100,000 viewers at once," he says For the massive videos, that sneeze can be anything from a TV appearance to a tweet by a popular Twitterer This catapults the video onto YouTube's daily "most popular" lists, and the chain reaction begins Even if only in 10 people continue to share the video, you have succeeded It happened for me when I sent a link to the free London paper Metro The paper gave Pets Teach Science an enthusiastic write-up, and the video's views surged by about 8,000 within a few hours It soon appeared on YouTube's "pets and animals" page In the following days, it was referred to in a couple of influential blogs and that almost doubled my hits overnight to more than 50,000 The growth continues, proving that with a little cunning, and some cute pets, anyone can make a video go viral I can reveal that Charlie's record remains intact Still, despite my worst fears, my video turned out to be a surprising success Next up on the channel is a sleepy fat cat which will demonstrate Einstein's general theory of relativity with a trampoline Keep watching!
