Well! You lot like a video (good news for us). And you also like to be amused.

Stacked with nostalgia, empathy, trends, and social issues, here are the 10 most clicked links in The100 during 2024.

Hold onto your hats…

In 10th

The Valeriepieris Circle – one-sixth of the world’s land area, but more people live inside of it than out. Good fact, that.

In 9th

Yesssss. I’m so pleased that this one made it in. A jazz band covering Nirvana on the spot. 

In 8th

Andrew Tenzer on how marketers don’t have a special aptitude for empathy. Zinger.

In 7th

Our friends at Capuchin on how you can nudge sustainable behaviour. A must listen for anyone with this on their KPIs. 

In 6th

Every now and again LinkedIn puts a random post in my feed which makes me sit up a bit straighter. Lou Haynes Jr, a police detective, did exactly that when he posted a list of the top traits shared by the best investigators.

10 years ago this advert was made. Wonderful. Alas the typical car ad today is now stuck in a long term rut of very good looking people, with extremely happy children, driving on empty roads in sunshine. I can relate more to the chicken…

In 4th

The 2024 US Food & Wellness Report. Despite there being a lot of claimed behaviour in there, it’s an interesting read. 

In 3rd

The wonderful injection of culture that is Letters Live. My favourites are a hilariously grumpy letter from a father to a son and a powerful letter to all men. Ace.

In 2nd

Dove’s 10 vs 10 ad. Together with a cracking soundtrack, it asks when did 10 stop looking like 10?

You may be singing the tune later on today, but you’ll probably also sit back, head in hands, and utter an exclamation at some point.

In 1st

Jon Steel’s thoughtful note for people starting a new job (and probably for those who are already in one). A lovely, easy read with some sage advice.

Thank you very much for reading The100 this year. Really. I hope that you enjoyed doing so. 

Have a wonderful break (if you’re getting one), and see you in 2025.
