what is a "viral video?" this is one of those buzz words, or phrases i should say, that is taking over in the media. searching for "viral video" results in 2,640,000 hits, but these results do not provide a definition of the terms nor do they explain how a video gets to be viral. above all, where did this term come from? who decides what is funny and/or important enough to become viral?
update: the above is not exactly true. wikipedia offers the answers. and it is just as expected. but i still want to know the origins of the phrase.
