As a late bloomer to Pinterest, I just didn’t get the whole thing: why would I “pin” something that I could just bookmark in my browser folder? I can always right-click and save images into my personal desktop. Why would I follow people whom I don’t know and risk myself to whatever THEY wanted to pin? On top of that, I don’t have any followers and that is just embarrassing.

That’s how I feel most users start with Pinterest. It looks intimidating with sensory overload and an endless supply of scrolling. I mean, when will I know when I’ve reached the end of the Pinterest? (Hint: there is no such thing as the end of Pinterest).

For some reason, I always get people asking me what a “meme” is, maybe it’s because I work in a digital agency or maybe it’s because I speak in lol half of the time (whatever, I can’t help it – it’s like a second language to me).  When friends and family members do ask me about memes, I almost feel like an “ambassador” and get really nervous explaining what exactly what it is…I only want to give them the best definition without overwhelming them with my self-proclaimed loved for them.  But what IS a meme?  Stuff you find on the internet?  Internet fads?  A cat?  (It’s probably a cat.)  According to Wikipedia, a meme is “an idea, behavior or style that spreads from person to person within a culture.”  I think this is the original definition in the old-timey sense, so I’d take it a step further and say that it’s not just an idea or behavior that spreads in general, but that memes spreads digitally.  ON THE INTERNET.
