Wednesday Words: Meme

While a lot of the younger and middle generations will understand this term, some of the older generation don’t understand what the word “meme” means.


To define it simply, a meme is, typically, an image with text above and or below it.  Meme’s can come in animated gif format or even as videos, but the most common is a simple image.  “I Can Has Cheezburger” and “Fail Blog” are great examples of Meme posting sites.

Of course, you can create your own memes at those sites, but there is also a site to help you create one from any of the popular meme pictures, found here:  http://www.memecreator.org/

Wednesday Words are a series of definitions released on Wednesday each week regarding a word found specific to Facebook's social media platform, or may be a generic word dealing with social media.  These definitions are to help provide you with a better understanding of common and uncommon terms associated with Facebook and social media.   You can find all the Wednesday Words by clicking on the Wednesday Words tag below.
