A  meme is "an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to person within a culture".   An Internet meme may take the form of an  image (typically an  image macro),  hyperlink,  video,  website, or  hashtag. It may be just a word or phrase, including an intentional  misspelling. These small movements tend to spread from person to person via  social networks,  blogs, direct  email, or news sources.
