This document discusses the science of virality in content sharing. It notes that for content to go viral, similar to disease transmission, on average each person must spread the content to more than one other person. Factors that make content shareable include appealing to public identity and self-enhancement motives, while being surprising, interesting, and useful. Factors that make content clickable include private curiosity and information or entertainment value in appealing to the actual self and self-verification motives. The viral coefficient measures whether content will spread widely with a value above 1.0 indicating viral transmission.
