Web Culture 101 via South Park
If I am going to open a conversation on social media and community building on this blog, we are going to have to discuss Web culture from time to time. Hence, a new category!
Want to know what makes a video go viral? Just look at the history. Here’s a quick Web culture test to start off your education–or continue it. South Park recently tackled the life of an Internet superstar in the “Canada on Strike” episode.
Can you name every meme/viral sensation featured in this clip?
WARNING: This clips is not entirely “family friendly.” It IS South Park after all.
Bonus points if you knew what a meme was before reading this post. Maybe we can all learn something from South Park after all.
