Viral: Anything shared across social networks that get passed along rapidly. YouTube videos are a great example.
Influence: An individual's importance online is now measured by the Klout Score, a measurement of online influence.

Trending: A word, phrase or topic that is popular on Twitter at a given moment.
Algorithm: A system that suggests pages to search engines in response to a search query.
Click bait: an article or headline designed to attract incoming clicks. News and widget hooks are good examples.
