   This was an experiment called "YTMND Fad Stock Market."  I devised an online survey and got 19 people to fill it out.  Each respondant indicated how long they'd been active on YTMND, then went down a list of 76 YTMND fads and gave them a rating from 1 to 10 (or Not applicable) by clicking radio buttons.  They each rated on a particular timeframe according to the user's seniority - from 1 year ago (-12m) to 1 month ago (-1m), to current status.  
    
   
   The respondants were asked to rate NOT in terms of how they personally liked each fad, but using a term I called "Perceived Value," which I defined as the popularity of the fad and how much the fad would help a particular YTMND site hit the Top Viewed/Top Rated.     I used OpenOffice Calc to collate scores and averages and create charts.  I've spent a week trying to get the charts to look all 3D and sexy and still be readable, but nothing doing.  So, the retarded multicolored mess you see here.  
    
   
   I grouped the fads arbitrarily in "sectors", averaged each sector in an index, and gave 4 examples here.  BTW, by "recursive," I mean that a YTMND site takes another well-defined YTMND site/fad and forces it into a new context.   Believe me, other YTMND fads defy any categorization - these are just the easy, clearcut ones.  So...  What do these have to do with simulating a stock market ?  Not much, it turns out.   The survey I made was long and tedious, and the results aren't what I'd call really accurate.  
    
   
   So... I'd like to think that, in a version 2 of the YTMND Stock Market, I'd draw data from present realtime sources.   That's a hypothetical.   Because I'm frankly more interested in making farting noises into a mic and making a YTMND called "Epic Butt Maneuver."   ...   So.  You read a lot, don't you ?   And you're patient.   Good for you.  Treat yourself to some ice cream.   Let the "boring !" downvoting begin here:
