When you search “Tiger Woods” on a traditional search engine, you will get results which include news stories from major media outlets, links to Wikipedia and espn.com, and Tiger’s official site which happens to be TigerWoods.com. This is a new type of search, one which gives you a window into the public’s thoughts – in real time.

If you use Twitter regularly, you’d see that it wins as a social news site that provides instantaneous news — at least of that caliber. As Chris Garrett explains in his post, if you follow numerous feed bots, you can get the news all the time. The right news will hit the front page of Digg quickly.

It’s really mostly about chance, and like I mentioned earlier in the comments, luck and timing. There has to be some type of emotional reaction or sensation that occurs in the viewer in order to keep them engaged and do whatever call to action you are looking for.
