You must be in the widget business ;-) ... Certainly the proliferation of independent content producers (bloggers) and easily-embeddable, syndicated content (widgets) along with the explosion of the number of web users has made truly "viral" concepts spread wider than ever.

Being able to put information online and expose it to millions has changed the distribution game... but I think it's more than just putting it online. The ability for a video like this to be successful depends on how shareable it is. With the Web, we started with just trading URLs but we've evolved into being able to embed videos into our blogs (like you did.) This makes it optimal for your readers to be able to connect with you over their enjoyment of watching the video. And I'm sure someone is reading this blog, seeing the video, and embedding it on their blog or MySpace page. Brian, I think you’re completely right on!
