PSY's success is a great testament to the universal appeal of catchy music-- and er, great equine dance moves. In the past, music distribution was mostly regional. It was more difficult to learn about great artists from around the world. But with a global platform at their fingertips, people are now discovering and sharing amazing music from all over the planet, by artists like Brazilian Michel Teló and Belgian-Australian Gotye.

One billion views is an incredible number, but the PSY-nomenon goes beyond that. Check out these stats:

• PSY was already big in Korea, but in 2012, he became a global celeb as Gangnam Style quickly spread from Seoul and the pacific to North America, South America, and Europe. It’s been seen at least 1 million times in close to 75 countries, making it one of the most global music sensations ever! 
• From a one-thousand person flash mob in Jakarta to cover videos from Ai Weiwei and Mitt Romney, hundreds of thousands of parodies have been uploaded to YouTube, some of which have tens of millions of views. In fact, fan tributes to Gangnam Style are now being viewed 20 million times every single day. 
• PSY's own remix with Hyuna has 200 million views alone. 
• "Gangnam Style" was YouTube's top rising search of 2012 and on October 6th, we saw more than five million searches for “gangnam style” in a single day. Check out this video demonstrating some of our most popular YouTube searches this year. 
• For those interested in the business side: a number of assessments and projections have been posted claiming “Gangnam Style” has generated over $8.1 million in advertising deals, hit more than 2.9 million in song downloads since July, and achieved other incredible feats! 
• Since late last month, people have clicked to buy the track on iTunes over 600,000 times helping make PSY the first Korean artist ever to rank #1 on the U.S. iTunes chart and #1 in over 30 more countries. 

Perhaps what’s most impressive about this feat is that it took just over five months to happen. To give this milestone some context, here’s a chart of Gangnam Style’s rise to popularity versus Justin Bieber’s “Baby,” the video that previously held the most-watched video title:

Congratulations to PSY, the flash mobbers, K-Pop fans and people who love fun across the globe. Considering the Gangnam Style dance was the number one dance-related search on YouTube this year, you better make sure you brush up on your moves before New Year's Eve.

The kind of amazing creativity and unique connection between people all over the world that resulted in this one billion views is only possible with an incredible community of people we're so lucky to have on YouTube. And we can't wait to see what you'll come up with next!

END.

Sinus Congestion Relief by Using Salt

Sinus congestion is very irritating. As a matter of fact, it is a pain and a nuisance. This is the more reason why sinus congestion relief has to be sought. The congestion is normally a result of allergies, flu or a cold. Now let see a solution for sinus congestion relief from below article.

By Dr. Jeanne Hounshell

What if you could be free of sinus congestion? Totally free? We have solutions for you. It's the time of year when allergies kick up and sinus congestion and other sinus problems are not far behind for many people. Post nasal drip, sore throat, sinus infection just to name a few. The key is to get ahead of the game by doing some simple home remedies. This is a simple solution for breaking up sinus congestion using only salt and water.

Make a solution of: 1 teaspoon of sea salt to half a cup of warm water. Stir until salt is dissolved. Put a little of this mixture in the palm of your hand, breath it through one nostril at a time up into the sinuses as far as you can. If this is too hard you can put a little of the solution on the tip of your finger, stick it in your nose and breathe it up that way. Repeat for both nostrils two or three times. You can do this every hour if necessary.

This will help break up the sinus congestion and you will almost immediately find that you can breathe again. The salt also helps kill the bacterial that is forming inside your sinus cavities.

Here is another one. This one is very soothing for a sore throat.

Add 1 teaspoon of sea salt to half a cup of warm water. Stir until salt is dissolved. Gargle with this mixture as often as every hour.

If your throat is sore it may hurt at first but very quickly soothes. It also helps kill the bacterial that forms on sinus congestion mucus. I like to make up a saline solution and do one right after the other.

The warm water should feel good to your sinuses and your throat.

These home remedies are very helpful in helping control most sinus problems, but if you really want to get over them fast and prevent future problems, you will need to figure out the underlying causes and how best to deal with them. On the sinus congestion page of our website you can find lots of solutions, such as the best nutritional supplement, more home remedies, what to avoid and what really helps. We have been there so we know what you really want is to never have another sinus problem and we can help you with do just that.

Professional Writing - Perfecting the Note

My interest now, one of the 10's actually, to write a good and nice article, interesting and easy to understand by the reader. Writing essays or articles is not easy. Many guides out there that teach how to be a writer can be references. But as the author of below article said "Writing is a lot of singing, every single note has to be pitch perfect".

By Marsha Maung

Writing is a lot of singing... every single note has to be pitch perfect. Having been in the entertainment industry before, what you see on stage is merely the result of lots of hard work, training, frustration, anger, fear, anxiety, and also determination.

Hence, the same goes for professional writing. While in-born talent has a lot to do with how we write, it has a lot to do with our training as well. So, how do we, professional writers, perfect all the notes and turn them all into pitch perfect articles? Here are a few clues.

Reading - Ask any professional writer if they liked to read, chances are, their answer would be a resounding 'yes' that can be heard from the next Universe. The love for writing is often a direct result of their love for reading. When you stop reading, you begin to realize that you lose a little bit of the love for writing too. Continue to immerse yourself with the written word...often. Pick a book up, a magazine or even a leaflet to evaluate what you see on paper. It will really help you master the art of putting words together in a refreshing way.

Learning and re-learning from new writers - Despite lacking in experience, there is tons to learn from all those young writers out there. Because of their lack of experience, they are more adventurous, have newer ways to say things and wildly creative with words. So, spare them the rod and just listen to what they have to say and don't judge.

Be open to ideas - Once you've been writing for some time, you start developing habits and ideals. You believe in a system that works for you and you start making it a habit. And as we all know it, habits are hard to break. Break them. Break them and be open to new ideas, different concepts because that is the only way we can grow and become even better.

Practice - There is no need to delve too deeply into THIS point. Practice makes perfect so, keep going.

Accept criticism - By far, this is the hardest to achieve and for most of us, extremely painful to a point that we might suddenly think that this is too hard and we should just give up if people don't like the way we write. Accepting criticism, as I have come to see, is one of the best ways to perfect the skill of writing. Do not take it personally. I know it is hard but let's look at it this way, they are not criticizing us per se, as human beings, but the quality of our work. There is no absolute wrong and absolute right so, just think of it as listening to another person's opinion in an open way.
