Gangnam makes internet history

It's 2billion views and counting for South Korean pop star Psy and his irrepressible Gangnam Style.
The surprise hit of 2012 has become the first YouTube video to surpass 2billion views, crossing the mark shortly before midnight Friday.
The unlikely viral star holds the record for most overall views and most views in a day with 38million for his Gangnam Style follow-up Gentleman.
No other video comes close to Gangnam on the streaming service's list of top videos.
Justin Bieber's Baby is the only other billion-plus video at 1.04billion views. Cute kid video Charlie bit my finger - again! is a distant third with 711million views.
Psy has three of the top 15 videos on the site. As of Saturday afternoon, Gangnam, which was released July 15, 2012, had 2,001,009,716 views, and counting.
Psy, 36, addressed the impressive milestone in a series of tweets and retweets written in both English and Korean Friday night.
"Very honourable and burdensome numbers," he wrote to his 3.46million followers. "With the appreciation, I'll come back soon with more joyful one! #THX"
YouTube marked the occasion by posting a congratulatory message on its Google+ page.
"The most-viewed video on YouTube just hit another jaw-dropping milestone. Congrats on your 2 billionth view, PSY!" YouTube stated.
MTV News jokingly calculated that at 4 minutes and 13 seconds, it would take a single viewer more than 16,045 years to watch Gangnam Style 2billion times in a row.
The video earned Psy a long list of accolades, including MTV Europe, American Music and World Music video awards in 2012 and 2013.
