We also observe that some videos suddenly go viral through people's sharing in online social networks (OSNs). Do these seemingly different phenomena share a common structure?\n  All these phenomena are associated with sudden surges of user activities in networks, which we call \"bursts\" in this work. We find that the emergence of a burst is accompanied with the formation of triangles in networks.
