Hacking into the power of social networks

[@DecoMetallo]

This is a very good channel. As a psychology student i always feel psychology is misinterpreted, like it was a jumbo mumbo disipline or an olistic bullshit: Also, very often the results of some researches are wrongly generalized or misunderstood and you end up with titles like "scientists have discovered how to pick up girls" or "according to scientists, [insert random bullshit here]", all things that are not even remotely considerble real psychology. Instead, here I found theories that are not only interesting and well explained, but also based on scientific works. I' m really happy to have found this channel, keep it up :)

[@JloBroOFFICIAL]

how are these videos not getting millions of views yet?! so interesting and useful

[@bilgames2700bc]

because quality has very very evry little to do with popularity

[@noravahine3991]

that's the same question I've been asking myself!

[@Robert-hi8el]

so true, KZbin nowadays is all about money.

[@LittleRainGames]

Robert the world is... People gotta eat and have a place to sleep, not to mentions hookers and crack and heroin. Gotta think about the necessities. But the reason he doesnt have millions of views is because it takes time for a channel to grow, videos become viral by people sharing videos. Also the new system is not showing as many videos, i used to get a bunch of new recommends, now they are the same for days. I think advertisers cant afford how much youtube is growing

[@drakekoefoed1642]

This guy narrates but doesn't come out to be seen. I've noticed that a lot of the high count videos are done by pretty girls, some of whom do not have much to say.

[@LegendaryStun]

10,000 views, 30 comments, 500 likes...this content deserves at least 10 times that...

[@lighteye72]

Honestly I think everyone on KZbin should watch your videos.

[@jonathon4597]

+dudemanpp. I agree however I fear that not everyone one on KZbin would understand them.

[@dudemanpp]

I love your videos and look forward to them every week.

[@theriffwriter2194]

That totally explains why, growing up, why my tight circle of friends were so generous. When I first entered the work world and I observed a colleague worry about gettin $5 to $20 paid back for someone spotting them lunch or something, It was so alien to me. To this day, it seems so foolish to make a fuss over a few bucks. The ill will you create over pennys is just so damaging. You just lost an ally covering for you when you don't feel like coming to work. Or someone to help lighten your work load, over a measly $5. That's what's called: penny smart, dollar stupid.

[@diwakarchettri7536]

I can vouch for one thing for sure, when in college I always made it a point to be friends with people on the 'fringes', I did this because I'd been bullied in school and had developed the habit of being concerned for people who got ignored. By the time in college, I was quite popular with my friends but I always kept an eye open for those people on the sidelines. And, do you know what happened? I won college elections for 2 straight years (grades 11 and 12) and 3 years after that during graduation. Of course, I hadn't planned all this, it was just the results of a decision I made as a young person. So yeah value the weak links!!! They're NOT weak but your strength!!!

[@MrPolluxxxx]

If you are lonely, then your friends are more likely to... wait

[@troooooper100]

i have to thank you for sharing this... i always noticed these things never paid as much thought to implications of these.

[@Angelllro]

So I'm stuck in my situation because I don't make new friends? How cool is that! Now I realize what happens when I specifically mention to my close friends that I don't want to meet their friends.

[@noravahine3991]

your videos are amazing, short and so on point! very helpful

[@zharifabdullah9319]

2:17 "Ever notice how black people tend to hang around with other black people?" I lol'd so hard at this

[@djangomarine6658]

Statistically, black people have more friends of different races than white people. It was just a bad example but it's still a valid point that people of the same race and background tend to hang around each other.

[@YocasFilmz]

These are always great! Keep it up!

[@imonthedeadly60]

Informative and interesting video as always - thanks!

[@virtualbadass]

The stock image photos in the video made me LOL. The message is pretty good though.

[@tjeulink]

how is this channel not huge yet?

[@Dr.BestBuy]

+tjeulink Lack of posting

[@troooooper100]

please don't stop making videos i watched your video 2 years ago. i still share it like spam bot regardless of if someone asked or not.

[@zonanboy]

3:30 I want that guy's maroon coloured suit!

[@jazibarshad354]

how awkward would it be to ask a 'weak tie' to introduce you to someone.

[@rakesh1369]

+BiteSizePsych - but if I approach a weak for potential relationship, they may know new people, yes but because they will be so different from us, it may not turn out to be quite fruitful, will it?

[@torosalvajebcn]

There is a difference between asking for information, and asking for a favor. Starting a casual conversation with a weak tie can have many benefits in terms of information, ideas, etc.

[@kidq26x1]

You guys have to put up what song that is. Its greats

[@BiteSizePsych]

+DiabeticManatee Hey there. One of my friends produced it from scratch and uses it in his rap songs. I can give you his soundcloud soundcloud.com/imhunterandimarapper. The song I use at the very beginning is called "Keep Grinding"

[@kidq26x1]

Thank You.

[@Sw1f70]

+Bite Size Psych what about the music in the rest of the video? that's the one I'm dying to find!

[@mathieucaron-diotte9824]

Excellent video! Keep up the good work! :)

[@bytler4518]

Hey, could you please create more videos like this?

[@nokhcho5502]

I rarely "like" videos on YuoTube, but this one deserves one

[@potsticker_982]

Keep at it! Like your videos!

[@MyPersonalUserName]

great vídeos on this channel

[@sebatoledo1285]

Amazing as always!! Keep it up! -

[@eymenu7281]

Great video!

[@LiftingPeanuts]

This is gold

[@marcushisevil]

I hate to say, this video is on point. 👍

[@AlexisHyuuga]

Thanks for the vid its informative and awesome, as always :D Keep it going I love it

[@SmileyMPV]

very interesting! I am most probably going to use this tip some time :)

[@Pieter9963]

Your videos are so useful

[@dannyjimenez9558]

This is why I like my crew of two friends. They're both white Americans, but one of them is a rapper. Whereas the other one is a hard worker and has knowledge in mechanics. I'm Mexican American, and a freerunner. My rapping friend has taught me about how to rap and I've become a decent writer of lyrics. In exchange I taught my friends how to do flips/tricking

[@CasperLind1]

I'm so glad i follow you i learn so much :D

[@programmerqdev]

I knew what I was doing was already connecting with the weak ties from time to time, until this broke that glass and now I might do this even more. Kind of begs the next question of, what if I'm the jack of all trades and happen to have connections nearly everywhere? Would we consider that as average ties? or just as equally weak?

[@Love_Crafts_HP]

This is probably why I have no friends. All I have are bad ripples.

[@MyVoid312]

Very interesting awesome thanks!

[@phillisshaver6416]

love love love.

[@QuackersMcCrackers]

Lmao , I just went to subscribe and I was like "oh am already subscribed, awesome".

[@B24Fox]

Actually i'ts more because of "Birds of a feather, flock together" .. And less about you actually influencing all of your friends, and your friend's friends, and their dog :))

[@igorsmirnov1645]

but may be people have more job offer from weak ties just because thay have more weak ties than strength ties

[@tedc161]

Sociology ftw. Granovetter, the strength of weak ties.

[@cosmicwarriorx1]

most of the things u said is from Tipping Point

[@LG51hacker]

Fact: When I heard this 6 degree seperation, Barack Obama was the first person that I calculated. And when I tell about my friends about this seperation theory 3/4 thought Barack Obama either. But why?

[@MorganQu]

Because he is the POTUS, and therefore, one of the most important people one will think about.

[@R1chking]

I'm black and most of my friends aren't black

[@TheQuizter]

This was helpful UNTIL the "notice how black people tend to hang out with other black people?" comment. Totally unsubstantiated, presumptive, and honestly tone-deaf.

[@thoughtyness]

This is why you should cheat!

[@djangomarine6658]

Actually this is why you should network.

[@eymenu7281]

Great video!
