ABSTRACT
This paper seeks understanding the user behavior in a social network created essentially by video interactions. We present a characterization of a social network created by the video interactions among users on YouTube, a popular social networking video sharing system. Our results uncover typical user behavioral patterns as well as show evidences of anti-social behavior such as self-promotion and other types of content pollution.
