My Very First Meme

About Me, Geek Blog, Random Bloggery Add comments

I’m trying out the whole Meme theory as it is pretty popular amongst folks in the blogosphere. I haven’t deduced why just yet, but I figured this would be as good as reason as any to give it a shot.

I’m not sure if memes are for better keyword saturation or if they’re just a way of developing custom content for your website.

From Wikipedia:

Meme - a unit of cultural information, cultural evolution or diffusion — propagates from one mind to another analogously to the way in which a gene propagates from one organism to another as a unit of genetic information and of biological evolution. Multiple memes may propagate as cooperative groups called memeplexes (meme complexes). more >>

So without further a’due let’s start off with a Meme I recently snagged. I got the following meme from 2K Bloggers and it goes a little something like this.

12 Questions Meme

1. What makes your blog unique?
I blog from the designer/ coder/ geek/ mountain biker/ disc golfer perspective. I haven’t seen a blog quite like it yet. I update content all the time and am constantly adding new and interesting media.

2. When did you start blogging?
I started blogging about 6 years ago when I was living in Hollywood, CA. My first blog platform was Blogger.

3. Is this your first meme?
Yes this is my first meme. I wasn’t quite sure what benefits a meme might provide so I decided to run a social experiment.

4. What do you hope to accomplish with your blog?
I hope to eventually develop an active group of users. Currently and up in till now I’ve been working on my traffic which has been on the up and up since I started this blog.

5. What are your feelings on the “blog popularity” issue?
Much like page rank I think people place too much importance on the popularity of their blogs. I think you can get a lot further with good solid content.

6. What’s your favorite childhood memory?
Sand Dunes at Big Bear state park shortly after the summer break started.

7. If you were stranded on a deserted island what three things would you want to have with you?
1. A woman
2. A Swiss Army Knife
3. A bottom less bottle of Bacardi

8. Are you a spiritual person?
I wouldn’t say so. I was raised Catholic and have been confirmed in the church, but personally I don’t consider myself that spiritual of a person.

9. Do your moral values affect the way that you blog, and if yes, how?
I wouldn’t say so. I would say that I feel strongly about freedom of speech. I don’t feel like there’s anything that should be considered taboo. So I suppose in that sense my moral’s affect me.

10. What is the weirdest thing that ever happened to you?
I’ll have to really think about this one. I’ll respond to this later.

11. What is your best quality?
I have great hair.

12. What is your worst quality?
I wake up too early.
