Add one more oddball milestone for the viral sensation “Gangnam Style.”
The song by PSY, the South Korean popmeister, has attracted so many views
that YouTube says it had to redesign its view counter to handle it.
In a post on its Google+ page, YouTube says:
“We never thought a video would be watched in numbers greater than a 32-bit
integer (=2,147,483,647 views), but that was before we met PSY. “Gangnam
Style” has been viewed so many times we have to upgrade!
“Hover over the counter in PSY’s video to see a little math magic and stay
tuned for bigger and bigger numbers on YouTube.”
Now, when you put your cursor over the counter, it starts to scroll as if
calculating the views. The video has been watched more than 2 billion times
and gotten 8.7 million likes, and 1.1 million dislikes. |
