Mrs. Bobbie Viral

A while back I posted a video made to advertise Sunset's website to it's members. That video is now going viral. It hasn't reached massive numbers or anything, but people are sharing it on blogs and other sites.

See for yourself: Neatorama, The Huffington Post, Unterekless Thoughts, The Findbuzz, Christ Wire, Hackaday, The DW, Michael Reuter

Mahalo even has a profile for Mrs. Bobbie.

I put the video on YouTube over a month ago. On Friday, my wife posted about Mrs. Bobbie on Neatorama's Upcoming Blog. From there the video was voted up until it made Neatorama's homepage on Saturday. Before Saturday it had been seen about 100 times according to YouTube's counter. By the end of the weekend it had been seen close to 4,000 times.

Yesterday, the video was featured on Attack of the Show. At the same time, other blogs started picking up on it and posting it. As of this writing, the video has been seen 22,000 times.

Sunset's site traffic is up about 500% from normal. This website has also seen quite a bit of traffic growth over normal.

Those numbers aren't anything compared to many other web videos. If you look at YouTube's rising videos, most are well over 100k views. Still, it's fun to see the video being shared and people getting a laugh. Way to go Mrs. Bobbie!
