    Looking at how deep the "meme about memes" has embedded itself in our culture . . . .

    Here's one, LawMeme. http://research.yale.edu/lawmeme/

    "LawMeme, a collaboration between the ISP, the Yale Law and Technology Society and the Yale Journal of Law and Technology delivers the latest law and technology news, commentary and feedback via the Web."

    "LawMeme is a law and technology weblog affiliated with Yale Law School and was founded in 2001. Our links and articles focus on the mutual influence of technological development and legal doctrine. LawMeme is staffed by Yale students, but we welcome submissions from all readers."
