meme, unit of cultural information spread by imitation. The term meme (from the Greek mimema, meaning “imitated”) was introduced in 1976 by British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his work The Selfish Gene.
What website do most memes come from?
Once a meme has been created, it is shared via social networks. Most memes are first circulated on Reddit, /pol/ or 4chan. From there, they find their way to other networks like Twitter, Pinterest, Facebook and WhatsApp.
Where did 4chan originate?
4chan was created by teenage Internet entrepreneur Christopher Poole (under the username “moot”) in 2003. Poole had been a poster on Something Awful, one of the Internet's most active and influential discussion forums. Something Awful was, however, heavily moderated, and its community discouraged memes.
4chan was created as an unofficial English-language counterpart to the Japanese imageboard Futaba Channel, also known as 2chan, and its first boards were originally used for posting images and discussion related to anime.
