Yeah, about that video

Damn.

That about sums up my thoughts on the response to that video I posted of my colleagues’ reaction to my yearlong trip.

On Facebook, on Twitter, and on a few blogs, friends and friends of friends happily passed it on to their networks and, before I could say “unintended viral marketing”, I had a massive spike in traffic on this blog.

I’m honoured. And a little scared. I made this video thinking only friends and colleagues would see it. I never expected it to multiply through the miraculous butterfly effect of the retweet.
