Hello Everyone, I am a student of Communications who is working on a project
linking Diffusion of Innovations Theory (Everett Rogers) with Memetics
(how's that for a 'false I' meme-plex). I wanted to put some feelers out on
this list-serv, to see if anyone has engaged in, or read about, this type of
research. I don't think I've come up with some amazingly original idea
here. I assume that this comparison has already been done, because it's
been alluded to in Aaron Lynch's Thought Contagion and in Laland and
Odling-Smee's The Evolution of the Meme. My angle on this writing is to
recommend an extension of Diffusion Theory using Memetics--it's for a
meta-theory class. The big end objective is for me to graduate. Any road
signs to research articles would be greatly appreciated.
