[edit] tags

/b/ and 4chan aren't "the most popular tags." There is no indication on the site of which tags are "most used".

The tags "/b/" and "4chan" are at the top of the list because the personal tag list on the Who's Live page (not the "popular tag" list on the main page) lists the tags is in alphabetical order; "/", and the number 4 come before all letters so they are at the top of the list.

also, if you check the main page on stickam, you can see a small section that says "popular tags"

/b/ and 4chan are not on the list at all, and "raids" don't have any significant impact on the site that I can see, especially in terms of "development" as the person who put that into the article is claiming. In any case there is no official ranking of tags on stickam, and the "popular tags" list makes no mention of /b/ or 4chan.

[edit] YouTube

Is Stickam mostly popular amongst YouTube users? I'm asking because I've heard it referenced a number of time by YouTube people, but never outside YouTube. If that's the case, can someone produce the necessary citation? A bit iffy 08:03, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

Stickam is popular with some of the habitual bloggers from YouTube. "Mostly popular" as in YouTubers make up the bulk of stickam users? No way, YouTubers are not even close to a majority. Stickam has hundreds of thousands of registered members. Now, if someone uses YouTube (and by "use" I mean makes video blogs all day) they are likely to be the kind of stickam user who sits on stickam all day, showing up as "Live" most of the time. That might make it seem to some people that YouTube is the majority at stickam but it's really a relatively small number of people who are on ALL THE TIME, as opposed to the hundreds of thousands who, (I say this purely for the sake of brevity) "have lives" and are not on for hours/days at a time. YouTubers a majority at stickam? It's a baseless claim really. How would you cite/prove something like that anyway?

It seems to me now that stickam is getting more and more popular, certain web communities are claiming that they are the majority on stickam, as in "We got in on the ground floor, we 'own' stickam, we MADE stickam."

An interesting afterthought : Stickam is filtered on myspace.com, last I checked (this could have been changed, but I don't think so. Someone correct me if I'm wrong). If you try to link your stickam profile from myspace, or use the code to "stick" your cam on your profile (which is the whole point of STICKam), myspace automatically filters the url to gibberish or something. Like almost every rule on myspace, there is a way to get around it, but most people don't know about it. I can only imagine how much bigger stickam would get if myspace allowed people to put stickam in their profiles. That will never happen of course and it's probably for the best.
