But This List Changed Everything I Ever Believed. https://thegabbler.com/the-broken-seal/2013/12/16/i-thought-i-understood-internet-headlines-but-this-list-changed-everything-i-ever-believed/ https://thegabbler.com/the-broken-seal/2013/12/16/i-thought-i-understood-internet-headlines-but-this-list-changed-everything-i-ever-believed/#comments Mon, 16 Dec 2013 18:01:56 +0000 http://thegabbler.com/?p=2680 Lately, Facebook newsfeeds have been blowing up with Upworthy and Viral Nova posts. These posts mainly consist of videos that inject the viewer with a nice shot of happiness or optimism that tends to wear off in a few minutes. In an attempt to help with this trend, The Gabbler has created a list of headline ideas that we’re thinking would do fairly well on either website. Shockingly, this list took about five minutes to come up with, given how well-thought out, provocative, and in depth these pieces tend to be on Upworthy and Viral Nova.
