# I have a client who wants a quote on a 'viral'
*sigh*

so now I'm having to explain how you can't just make a viral. You can make something you think is funny, or interesting, or disturbing, but you can't put a price on 'producing' a viral.

So, my solution is to quote them $30k.

researching the most popular virals of all time brought me to the 'cats: all your base'... funny how hummus strikes.

# Can I get a quote
on a 'how to play fallout 3 guide?"

Apparently I'm addicted to vodka. Addicted to vodka, for fuck's sake. A doctor wants 50 bottle caps to cure me. It's all going wrong.

also my google is fucked up man.

# really?
so you have to drink 50 more bottles of vodka?

this sounds like a great doctor

# in post apocalyptic America ( DC )
the currency is bottle caps. I never thought of it like that though. I got addicted after drinking 2 bottles. I have no idea what another 48 might do ;)
It's a brilliant game. I just don't have a scooby what to do.

# They zip in and out of e-mail accounts,
get millions of views on YouTube and sometimes put the Madison Avenue creations of real-life Mad Men to shame. Viral videos have been part of the Web world since 1996’s digital Xmas card from the South Park boys, but over the past decade they’ve also impacted politics — sometimes changing the course of elections and frequently providing a few laughs in an otherwise wonky world.
