http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meme

I kept coming across the word meme in various places and thought i knew what the definition was, but just wanted to look it up on wikipedia anyway. boy, wish i knew where i have been for the past few years...sheesh. This is really spiffy stuff.... i find it interesting that it is used to mean so many different things, but yet still applicable (most notably, the weird little fill-in-the-blanks survey thingies that keep wandering around livejournal and other places)...huh. i will need to think about this....
