FYI The meme word was first introduced by evolutionary biologist, Richard Dawkins, in 1976. Meme (rhymes with team) comes from the Greek word mimema (meaning something imitated, American Heritage Dictionary). Dawkins described memes as a being a form of cultural propogation, a way for people to transmit social memories and cultural ideas to each other. Not unlike the way that DNA and life will spread from location to location, a meme idea will also travel from mind to mind.
