viral

I keep thinking about this, from Publishers Weekly:

Yes, teens spend a lot of time online. But for publishers trying to use that to their advantage, it takes

more than just shifting promotional dollars to

the Web. “Part of the trick to marketing

books to teens online is that the most

effective results seem to come from the

coverage that appears most organic,

viral and uncommercial in

nature,” says Tracy van Straaten, v-p of

trade publicity at Scholastic.

wtf?
