I think a lot of people and advertisers who try to make something viral forget that the entire reason something becomes viral is because people like the content, not because you have some sort of voodoo.<p>If you want to make something viral, make something good. :D | null | 6,879 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |

6,884 | null | comment | Constantine | 1,175,081,423 | Well Alex makes an interesting point, that you would need more skill to get a big return on the little hands, but I still think that if you had a large sum of capital and you were especially good at the poking, that small investments would pay off exceptionally well. | null | 6,205 | null | null | null | null | null | null | null |
