'Doodling in Math Class' Videos Going Viral, and Righfully So

Oh, Vi Hart. We don't know you, but we loved you as soon as we saw your hand drawing an infinite number of monsters eating each other. We are not alone, apparently, as traffic to Vi Hart's Youtube videos is growing. Perhaps exponentially. Perhaps like Sierpinski's Triangle.

Vi Hart's "Doodling in Math Class" series takes the notion of drawing silly stuff during math class, and applies actual mathematical principles. The result: you actually learn stuff. More importantly, you learn fun stuff like drawing snakes.

With the starting point of drawing a line of elephants, you will see just how dense infinity can be, and just how fun math can be.
