All those who are crazy about using YouTube and uploading their videos aspire for one thing in common, they want their video to go Viral. Its not easy, but its not very tough either, Follow these steps below and sure your video is the next viral video in YouTube.
Hold on before you start, download few of the top viral videos and check the following golden rules:
☞ Why is it a huge LOL product?
☞ What’s the USP of the video?
☞ What makes it look offbeat?
☞ And finally why people are crazy to share it?
☞ Why is it a huge LOL product?
☞ What’s the USP of the video?
☞ What makes it look offbeat?
☞ And finally why people are crazy to share it?
Now here are some steps to follow once you get started:
Should look real:
The unique fact about viral videos is that they don’t need to look professional. Strangely enough, many of the top videos are created by very expensive videographers… to look home-made. Plan your videos before starting. Script the main scenes. Do it take several times till you are convinced that it is perfect.
Video Length:
Short is Super. Create 20 minutes of video if you want but then edit it back to 100 seconds. Use good video editing tools like Adobe Premiere, If the video is short, its file size is small meaning it’s easy to send/share across the web and mobile phones.
Engaging Headlines:
When you upload it to YouTube, DIGG and others, write highly engaging headlines that make people want to click on it and see what’s inside.
Again, study how other videographers do this and then copy their style. Look at the top 20 videos on DIGG every day and you’ll get the idea.
Selecting a Category Wisely:
Predict where people will look for your videos and enter them in the right category. Its better if you you avoid crowded categories. Look at areas that others tend to ignore and focus on those.
Spin a Story:
Even if you have a reallly good video, its all about how you promote the video with a story spun around it by a series of promotional videos about the main video. People generally fall for stories use it to your advantage, but never cross the line.
Use Social Media:
The biggest weapon for you to promote your video is Socail Media and its all about using it effectively. Use Twitter and Facebook extensively to promote your videos and slowly it will go viral.
Remember success is not instant, keep working on your video and sure it will go viral.

When it comes to Desktop Twitter clients TweetDeck is the only thing that comes to our mind, there are few other Desktop clients worth trying as well, here are five clients that i have picked:
1.Seesmic for Windows
Seesmic for Windows is an elegant desktop client for Twitter with a slightly transparent tabbed interface. Seesmic for Windows can handle multiple Twitter accounts – you can get a integrated timeline or look at your replies, direct messages and sent messages for each account separately. You can post the same updates/links/photos to one or more Twitter account simultaneously. This is a native Windows application and doesn’t require Adobe AIR which is an added advantage.
2.Twhirl
Twhirl is an quick and easy-to-use Twitter client with a simple yet terrific interface. You can even choose your own color schemes and font styles for the interface. Unlike heavy-weights like Seesmic or TweetDeck, Twhirl doesn’t offer loads of features but if all you need is a way to quickly post status updates on your Twitter timeline, this could be a good choice. Twirl also offers integration with other less-common networks such as identi.ca and FriendFeed, and lets you cross-post updates to other social networks via Ping.fm. Twhirl is from Seesmic, the same company the develops previously mentioned Seesmic Desktop for AIR and Seemsmic for Windows.
3.DigiTweet
DigiTweet is an open source desktop Twitter application for Windows. Through Windows Presentation Foundation, DigiTweet provides Twitter features with rich user interface. It’s notable features include search facility for finding other twitter users as well as Twitter contents, and a friends list for viewing Twitter users you are following and who are following you.
4.DestroyTwitter
DestroyTwitter, an Adobe AIR powered Twitter desktop client, is very popular for its minimalistic but innovative interface. The unique thing about Destroy Twitter is its support for Themes – you can either download default themes or use the online theme-builder to create one that matches your taste. DestroyTwitter uses impressive transitions when switching from one screen to another and it’s probably the only desktop client that lets you edit your own Twitter profile. Then there’s support for Twitter trends so that you can know what’s hot on Twitter without having to visit the Twitter site. Destroy Twitter is lightweight and extremely fast. You can also configure the application so that it always stays on top of other applications.
5.Snitter
Snitter is an Adobe AIR powered Twitter client compatible for Windows. Snitter offers auto updates tweet list, recent list of tweets, 20 most recent items in your timeline, 20 most recent replies, 20 most recent direct messages and more. Further, it has options for viewing and filtering the followers.

No time to sit all day on Twitter?, Schedule your tweets and stop worrying, here are the 4 best tools for you to do so-
1.Twuffer
Twuffer is one of the best in class. It is the easiest and fastest to use for scheduling a tweet. The huge favour it does to those impatient users like me is that it doesn’t require me to sign up for a Twuffer user account. Many services require you to sign up with their site, in addition to your existing Twitter account, in order to link the two together and use the service. Many of us don’t like having many different logins to remember, There are enough things to mess up in our lives. =)
To login to Twuffer, just type in your Twitter information and thats all you need to do! The interface couldn’t be simpler and it keeps track of your past and future scheduled tweets.Simplicity is just what you need?, Then "this is your cup of tea" =)
2.SocialOomph

2.SocialOomph
SocialOomph demands registration with email activation, having said that you get lots of cool features (most are free). From scheduling tweets, automatically following and unfollowing tweeps doing the same, save drafts , create extended profiles to display more personal info. By upgrading to the optional professional version, it gives you many more features such as Facebook integration, keyword tracking and recurring updates.
SocialOomph works reasonably well, i use it and its my favourite app in its kind, but some might find it looking a little complicated in the way the features are organised. However it’s still a very useful app anyway.
3.Hootsuite

3.Hootsuite
Hootsuite is one app that needs no introduction because of its huge popularity. Its a good package in terms of features just like SocialOomph. The interface is elegant, customizable, One should be 'wow'ed by the way it works with its AJAX technology.
Even though it’s overkill for scheduling tweets, it’s still simple enough to use for just that purpose. It has other time-saving features, such as automatic updates of your blog feeds into Twitter and threaded converstions can be very useful for those who follow thousands of tweeps.
4.CoTweet

4.CoTweet
Frankly i knew CoTweet only after seeing Aaron (@AskAaronLee) using it all the time. It has a clean interface, which seems to have become a must for Twitter apps. Apart from scheduling tweets, CoTweet will save all incoming and sent messages for you to view later if needed. One of its more unique features is the ability to assign a tweet to a friend, or someone else to follow up on. This can be very useful for businesses.
CoTweet does require you to register an account with them, but it’s all for good. You can link your CoTweet account with up to 5 of your Twitter accounts and manage them all under one roof. This saves a lot of time and lets you schedule tweets for multiple accounts from one place.Now you know why businesses use CoTweet.
I hope it was useful to you tweeps =) and i would love to hear from you on which is your favourite app, so write your comments!
