As someone interested in what we share and why, I\u2019ve been aggregating images that go popular on the social web for the last 3 years. The methodology for how I put them together is simple. I\u2019m a member of multiple social sharing communities and save the best images that go hot as-it-happens to later sort and aggregate for you here.<\/p>\n
There are a few reasons I\u2019ve been doing this. One is I get feedback from readers saying they appreciate receiving a sampling of images shared throughout the year in one place (in case they missed some). The other is to help you \u2013 as someone interested in having your ideas shared. If you analyze the images that spread organically you\u2019ll start to notice that there are clear archetypes of the winners.<\/p>\n
So if you\u2019re new to this site (or this series) start by checking out the following posts (which also provide more analysis\/commentary on trends in viral images):<\/p>\n
All caught up? \u00a0Great.<\/p>\n
