This story intrigues me.
I learned about LonelyGirl15 last week in an email from trendcentral.com.
LonelyGirl15 has become a YouTube and MySpace phenomenon and is gaining fans at an alarming rate. And it's not surprising, LonelyGirl15 (Bree) is a young teen, "trapped" at home where she is homeschooled. Her friend Daniel (the computer wiz) helps her maintain her video blog on YouTube.
Thousands of fans aside, Bree's also got her critics saying that she's nothing more than a fake!
But why would she be a hoax?
Jack Yan from The Persuader has some interesting insights on this.
Real or fake, a trend is a trend, and so I've created the first CafePress shirts to add fuel to the fire! They can be found over at CafePress.com.
I predict this is only the beginning of Bree.
