Most popular videos of 2006
It seems that the individual charts are published on almost every site dedicated to online video. Even the solid Reuters agency today published some semblance of such a hit parade , for some reason giving special attention to Britney Spears.
The vast majority of the most popular videos on the Internet are stored on YouTube . By the way, YouTube has a special page with a list of top-rated videos with the number of views for each of them.
Very interesting to compare. The most famous video from the expanses of the CIS (the famous dancing Belarusian ) was watched 1,163,917 times, but the absolute record on YouTube belongs to another dance video , which today has almost 37 million views. This and other popular videos are listed in the amateur video charts on the Viral Video Chart .
Unlike other ratings, Viral Video Chart charts are not composed of the number of views (which always grows over time), but by the number of links to a particular video plot. Probably, this approach is more objective, although sometimes we see a clear discrepancy between the number of incoming links and the total number of views. Well, let's see what content created one of the brightest phenomena of 2006 - the phenomenon of viral video.
