From what I understand, a "meme" is the cultural equivalent of a "gene", that is, an element of a culture or a way of behaving that spreads from one individual to another, usually by imitation.<BR/><BR/>It's use in blog posts like this is a reference to the way it spreads from one blogger to another, eventually entering popular usage.<BR/><BR/>An non-internet equivalent of a meme would be "high-fiving", for example. Although that particular gesture has long been considered an ordinary component of social interaction, it's genesis and growth would have been "memetic" (compare "genetic") in nature.<BR/><BR/>Having now fully exposed my inner-nerd, I will retreat to my lair, where I will partake in science-fiction and imaginary video games."David Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06041580123414270092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27459292.post-23404734866311519692008-11-20T07:54:00.000+09:302008-11-20T07:54:00.000+09:30Thanks for indulging my sticky-beaking, David :)I'...Thanks for indulging my sticky-beaking, David :)<BR/><BR/>I'm glad I wasn't just drinking anything, because I may have had liquid come out my nose as I read your second fact!Theresahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08526136978255752695noreply@blogger.com
