What Is the Uniqueness of Growth Pattern in Human Flesh Search Organization?

Human Flesh Search is an explosive Web phenomenon these years in China, especially when new media, such as Weibo, appeared. In this research, we present the empirical studies about growing patterns of participated Human Flesh Search user, and unveiled one unique growing property. Based on the empirical findings, we compare it with two others results, one is the common Weibo’s growth pattern, and the other is the popularity growth pattern of photo in Flickr. Some differences are proposed and analyzed briefly.
