Memetics on slashdot

I looked at what memetics-related stories have made slashdot in 2014. There's:

• Algorithm Distinguishes Memes from Ordinary Information

• First Study of the Evolution of Memes On Facebook

It's nice to see that memes are making it into the tech news once again. These articles - and the studies they refer to - seem likely to be a side effect of the 2011 internet meme explosion.
