Thanks Elf. :)

Have you read/researched much on the subject yourself?

I strongly suggest to download and use Miro. It's a free and open source video player that promotes downloading and saving all the videos that sites like YouTube can delete and prevent the public from having access to. You can also create your own channel by using RSS feeds. (I made a couple music video based off of my playlists on YouTube so I could watch them without having to deal with the load times of that site.) I have a mac and it works awesome-sauce-ly on it. They support all OSs.

Anyone have resource suggestions (links, books, persons, etc.) or views on the topic of memes?

If you aren't familiar or want a starting point on the topic, Wikipedia's entry is useful:

TED's site has piles of videos that are also very interesting to watch on related topics. I strongly suggest watching them!

Here's a cool video of Dan Dennett speaking on the topic. http://www.ted.com/index.php/talks/dan_d...
