Interesting article about what factors contribute to making a hit song. This is probably very similar to casual game hits..

I can't bring myself to come to a conclusive opinion on this article / study. Is it obvious? Is it news? Is it brilliant? Ah well -- still a good link.

Seems the same could be applied to "Hit Methods of Governance", or "Hit Religions"... though most of those days seem passed by. Perhaps it's the attention span shrinking... in 20 years will we have "Hit words" and "Hit noises"?

One can hope.
