Originally, I have decided to be part of Blogger to have more chances of expressing myself through writing. But, recently, I began to notice that my blog is little by little becoming a photoblog! Haha! Well, there is nothing wrong with that. I am enjoying it (soooooo much)!
I have no any idea about memes before. Meme? What does meme mean? Dictionary.com defines it as:
meme /meem/–nouna cultural item that is transmitted by repetition in a manner analogous to the biological transmission of genes
In the world of blogging, memes refer to activities, such as quizzes, surveys or photo challenges (which I am a part of), that people link to and pass around their blogs.
As from my experience, being part of or having memes increases my traffic and allows me to meet more fellow bloggers out there. I get to enter other worlds which I have never been to. There are moms, a wife of a rancher, photographers, fellow singles, fellow believers and a lot more! I am truly happy to have taken a glimpse of these different worlds and to have those people take a glimpse of my own little world in return.
Another thing is, memes motivate me to update my blog as often as possible. Since there are weekly challenges, I am indeed challenged to find photo/s suitable for the week's theme. In addition, looking at or reading entries from other bloggers may inspire me to write about something I have never thought of before. Not to mention, giving and receiving comments make blogging more fun, exciting and meaningful.
On the other hand, some bloggers find meme as something that doesn't add value to their blogs. I respect their opinion. Hmmm, maybe, it depends on the thought or purpose behind the meme itself and the level of excitement it gives to the blogger.
Anyway, I am thankful that I am part of what I want to describe as purposeful and fun memes. What memes am I part of? So far, these are what I have joined:
And, I'm about to join these ones, too:
