Forecast that virality
And now we have a self-styled ‘video-prediction engine’. The owners of PopScreen claim the new online destination, which monitors an array of websites, among them YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion, can predict which clips are set to go viral.
“Don’t be surprised to find that some of the videos detected by PopScreen end up making the nightly news – it happens occasionally,” say the PopScreen folks. “More importantly, we hope you enjoy consistently getting the scoop on hot news clips, underground music videos, soon to be viral sensations, and other things you’re interested in.”
