has anybody notice how many viral videos we've watched and have been entertained by? in the humor forum, there's a bunch of topics of funny online videos.

QUOTE
The term viral video refers to video content which gains widespread popularity through the process of Internet sharing, typically through email messages and media sharing websites. Viral videos are usually humorous in nature and may range from televised comedy sketches such as Saturday Night Live's Lazy Sunday to unintentionally released amateur video clips like Star Wars Kid. While the viral video phenomenon has occurred in a largely unstructured manner, a number of organizations have attempted to adopt marketing strategies that rely on the distribution of viral video, often with mixed results.


and recently, viral videos have like this sudden fame. with vh1's webjunk and bravo's viral videos and the instantly famous viral video stars (ex. numa numa guy and the chronicles of narnia rappers)

do you view them as a form of entertainment or a stupid waste of time? have you made any? what are your favorite ones?

btw, i searched so if this is a double topic sorry. and if it's in the wrong place, sorry.

^ No worries. :) I'm going to go ahead and move this to technology though.

(Unless I'm wrong, then someone can move it back ;) )

It's stupid. All these idiots who gain fame through the internet are complete morons. The people who watch and support these fags are even bigger fagfucks.

I love viral videos, lmao. They are hilarious and random and not a waste of time. Sure, some of them may lower our IQ's or make us insane, but they can really cure boredom, and they have been very very very popular these days. Hmm.. I think this should be ..

that is so true. viral vids and useless content is a good way to kill time and waste time. Take this guy for example.... he made it on tv.: http://www.current.tv/video?id=2185080


Also take "chuck norris facts" for example:
