I’ve had a few friendly feuds about what it means to be viral. Faris Yakob says, “as the viral / spreadable discussion continues, it is important to remember that how you think about something does matter, because the metaphors we use can change how we approach things.” Meme videos spread because we decide to share them with our friends. They’re “viral,” but not the “cold” kind. Or worse, like Swine flu.

Their views depend on our ability to communicate and engage each other with the content online. In today’s episode I go over the three best websites to track viral and meme videos: Visible Measures, Know Your Meme and Dipity.

An expanded list of meme examples of the most viewed videos from Visible Measures:
1. Soulja Boy: Crank That
2. Twilight
3. Mariah Carey: Touch My Body
4. Jeff Dunham: Achmed the Dead Terrorist
5. Susan Boyle (Britain’s Got Talent)
6. Leona Lewis: Bleeding Love
7. Avril Lavigne: Girlfriend
8. Chris Brown: With You
9. The Dark Knight
10. Alicia Keys: No One
11. Evolution of Dance
12. Miley Cyrus: 7 Things
13. Charlie Bit My Finger… Again
14. Rihanna: Please Don’t Stop the Music
