I haven't read the doofus's 'secret strategies' but surely there are some things that are more appealing than others and therefore more likely to 'go viral'. I share your distaste for the marketing side of virality, as I despise anyone who says 'content provider' with a straight face. Can't wait to read your book. Also, have you got Josh's email, because I think I only have his old one. Is virality really random?
