The internet is a thing of true beauty

I'm watching an amazing example of the spread of information online right now.

A short while ago, some girl posted anonymously in a discussion about long distance relationships on an image board that she cheated on her boyfriend several times. She revealed that they have been in a long distance relationship for 3 years, that he studies at UCLA, and that she lives in Ohio.

That was a mistake.

So, at this very moment, I'm witnessing hundreds of people across a bunch of different websites trying to expose the girl in question. Undoubtedly, they'll become thousands instead of hundreds in a matter of days, and they'll inevitably succeed.


The truly interesting part in all of this is just how quickly people will start spreading information when they find a somewhat appealing cause, and the role the social networks (youtube, facebook, myspace) play in all of this. Harness that power for profit, and you'll be a very rich man indeed

(the actual story here isn't particularly interesting or relevant, of course - the flows of information, on the other hand, are awesomely revealing from a business perspective)

It's like giving drinks to girls only to find out they have a BF or have their period and dont do BJ's in restrooms

Seriously though, Libertine, I agree. I too am amazed at the path and flow.
It truly never seizes to amaze.

i feel you.. communication has always amazed me.. before the net amazed me, CB radios amazed me.. communications are a very powerful force... i made a viral blog a month ago, and now due to social bookmarking and word of mouth and some other factors, its grown to over 7k unqs a day with no promotion.. i love seeing the referers, i visit the sites to see the phenomenon in action...

Perhaps, but it doesn't really matter. The model stays the same, and can be re-used.

Very true, and also can be very scary when you think of the untapped power of the internet for good and evil.



If you only knew the POWA of the dark side...
