In which case they might suggest it to you as well, even if your personal interests are not closely related to whatever happens to be trending?
- vidanay 3y agoIt wasn't suggested to me. I am working my way through his lectures and I explicitly went to the channel and selected the video.
- pests 3y agoThe next logical question is what set you off to work your way through his lectures? Was whatever caused that, inspired by this? I don't think it matters or anything but it is an interesting question into virality and where ideas come from.
- vidanay 3y agoWell, that's a long a twisty route... I was originally watching videos from a guy who goes hiking further north in BC. From there, I searched for similar videos in WA. From there I saw a couple of videos about the modern history (1800's to today) and settlement of Seattle and the sound. From there I saw one of Nick Z's geology videos which I really liked and have been watching them since.
- pests 3y agoThanks for the Nick Z rec. Start the video linked upthread and already loving it. I recently went on a earth formation / geology binge on YT over the last few weeks and this is right up my interests.
- codetrotter 3y agoMy bad. I misunderstood what you meant.
