An experiment launched by Dee Kim and Bistin Chen, called “Project GoodCry”, seeks to enhance the rating system of YouTube videos by adding an “I Cried” button, which measures the tear-jerking ability of videos through a “5 tears” rating bar. This can be installed if you have Google Chrome as your browser and install the plug-in at Project GoodCry’s website. The number one video at the moment that is making people cry is the aptly-named “Sad Scene” from the film, Fox and the Hound.
