Game Over: You Can't Download 'Flappy Bird' Anymore

If you haven't already downloaded the addictive and much-hyped Flappy Bird app, you're out of luck. As promised, the creator has pulled the app.

How does Mashable know what's going viral?
Mashable built a system called Velocity, which scours the social web, collecting lots and lots of data around how people are engaging with published articles. It then pulls all of that data back to Mashable, dumps it into our own predictive engine, and predicts which articles are about to go viral.
