Speechbreaker

Well I think it can be said that Speechbreaker was a resounding success. We put out the following video on Friday at about 5am having worked through the night chopping up David Cameron’s keynote speech.

It’s had over 3000 views so far. But the site itself has had over 24,000 uses with hundreds of videos being made. Check out the youtube channel to see the creations.

I’ve got to say it was an enormous buzz working on this project and seeing something go properly viral. The ability to watch people twitter and retweet the thing in real time added to the excitement. Just goes to show the power of tapping in to the general zeitgeist and catching the wave of a topical subject. Something can and will only go viral if the content is something that people actually like and want to share. You really can’t force people’s hand on this.
