Without a doubt the number one most viewed internet video of the year was inspirational comedian Judson Laipply's Evolution of Dance. The dance retrospective was an immediate smash hit on Break and then made the rounds on dozens of TV shows. Judson's video instantly established him as a bona fide e-Lebrity and his speeches are now in very high demand.
