some maths

The video for Lady Gaga's telephone was released on March 11 at 11:30pm ET.

When I watched it at 1:49am (ET) Sunday, March 14, youtube says it has been viewed 12,443,126 times.

9:32 play time = 9.53333 minutes

(12,443,126 * 9.5333333) / 60

Lady Gaga = 1,977,074.47 hours of attention in 3 days.

I'm not really sure what that means so I looked it up:

Habitat for Humanity's houses each take 1,600 man hours to build.

A Boeing 747 takes 2,160 man hours to build from scratch.

huh.

  1. But most of us also watched reality TV and drank beer while watching, so it was actually pretty productive multitasking. What do you say to that?
