Dancing Hamsters, Chuck Norris, LonelyGirl15, Free Hugs, Borat, Simpsonize, Guinness Hands… The Cakke Team created this video to pay homage to all the Viral Internet Superstars. How many hours do you reckon you’ve spent watching videos forwarded by your friends since the day you created your 1st email account? From Paris Hilton sex tape to my dear neighbor Noah Kalina’s Everyday montage, how many do you recognize? I scored 35. Not so good.

Really cool video! What striked me was that people always said that when audiences moved away from the TV that the opinion and common knowledge in society would become fragmented – not touching each other. Well, this movie kind of proves the contrary – a Internet tool enabled us to all share a common universe of virality!
Oh, by the way, I scored 51. I guess we know who’s not sleeping enough hours in the night :)
