Memes

I've gotten some questions about memes.  I will write about it.

Essentially they are culturally learned behaviors that are transmitted either peer to peer or generationally.  They can be learned by observation.  Like seeing someone do something on tv and then imitating it.

That's different than yawning which we all do innately.

Memes are bits of behavior that transmit culture.  If you can affect culture around a brand you have become very powerful.

More later.
