People keep sharing YouTube videos with me. Some, like a long-forgotten gem on a You’ve Been Framed repeat (usually where someone falls though the roof while cladding the loft) make me laugh.
Others, like a bad email joke that you first saw in 1998 and has just made its way back to you via a friend you’d hoped you wouldn’t hear from again since they moved to New Jersey, just waste my time.
So I’ve decided to create LEWIS 360’s own YouTube Gold chart, with a sprinkle of meme magic.
MY TOP FIVE YOUTUBE VIDEOS
1. Die Cast
2. Chavs on a roundabout
3. Urban ninja
4. Daniel Chesterfield
5. OK Go on treadmills
Now, because I’m meme-spirited, I invite Danny, Tim, Bob, Stuart and Wade to suggest their own top five. (Drew and Alex, you’d better get stuck in too.)
Here’s the trick – to everyone you send this meme to, ensure they include a memetag – a link back to this post like the one below.
Here’s the code:
<p>Memetag: <a href="http://www.lewis360.com/2006/09/youtube_gold_a_.html">YouTube chart</a></p>
I will track the meme, read every entry, compile a chart and keep our list up to date and ranked by popularity.
