‘Back’ YouTube videos to go viral
Tubett, which is based in Dublin’s Digital Hub, has opened up what it calls a new “social video curation platform” where you can compete with others regarding the likely popularity of YouTube clips.
In what sounds like a cross between a game and the stock market, you can “back” certain videos to go viral. “TubeTrenders” can buy virtual stock and back the videos that they believe will go viral, while the value of the stock fluctuates in proportion to the video’s popularity, based on the number of daily views.
