Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Why is it that some ideas or products become unusually successful and get adopted widely while others don't? This question has been puzzling many social scientists, economists, politicians and educators for a long time. Knowing the ansr to this question can help deliberately start such successful cascades. Many theories have been introduced in this topic by economists and social scientists and these theories have been backed by small numbers of case studies. ,  will focus on the popular theories introduced in "The Tipping Point" by Malcolm Gladll. The basic idea is the crucial effect of three types of "fascinating" people that the author calls  mavens, connectors and salesmen  on the effectiveness of a cascade. Those people are claimed to "play a critical role in the word-of-mouth epidemics that dictate our tastes, trends and fashions". In this work,  investigate existence of  mavens, connectors and salesmen  in the blogosphere.  formally define what it means to be a  maven, connector  or a  salesman  and study their possible effect on the success of cascades in the blogosphere.  also study a fourth type of interesting actor that  call  translator , an actor that acts as a bridge beten different interest groups and communities.  observe that these four types of important players do in fact exist in the blogosphere and they have high correlation with successful cascades. More interestingly,  show that the cascades where these actors act as intermediaries rather than initiators are more likely to reach a larger size.
