About This Category

This is a collection of pictures and sounds evocative of, or related to, memes.

A prime example of a meme or 'infective idea' might be a compulsive ad jingle that you can't get out of your head, or a memorable quote or 'one-liner' such as "Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!" from the film "Carry on Cleo" (see a BBC news item on top film quotes).

If you are interested in the science of thinking, the mind, and memes, then visit UK Memes Central, or read Dr Susan Blackmore's The Meme Machine.

  • spam = UBE, Unsolicited Bulk Email, UCE, Unsolicted Commerical Email, SPIT, SPam over Internet Telephony, SPIM, SPam over Instant Messaging, phishing = See Spamhaus, a major player in the fight against SPAM. Also CAUCE, spam.abuse.net and the SpamCon Foundation. See SourceForge for many free anti-SPAM software tools using techniques such as DNSRBL (DNS Real-time Block Lists), POP3, IMAP and SMTP (reverse) proxy servers, blacklists, greylists, whitelists, Bayesian filtering, DNS and SPF validation, blackholing, SPAMholing, tarpits/tarpitting, etc, etc, all designed to raise costs and reduce access from the lizards who fill our mailboxes with junk.

An example of a typical "419" or advance-fee fraud email. The use of the free mail account and throw-away address is one big clue... Here is a bigger sample of the text:

FROM THE DESK OF ...
BILL AND EXCHANGE MANAGER,
AFRICAN DEVELOPMENT BANK
OUAGADOUGOU, BURKINA FASO.
TEL:00226-78-81-...
Alternative e-mail: ..._2005@yahoo.com

Dear Sir/Madam

I know that this letter may come to you as a surprise but due to the urgency of this transaction.First I must solicit your confidence in this transaction, this is by virtue of it's nature as being utterly confidential and top secret. Though I know that a transaction of this magnitude will make any one apprehensive and worried, but I am assuring you that all will be well at the end of the day. There is no doubt that trust conceptually is a conundrum which leadsitself to deferring interpretation, we have decided to contact you due to the urgency of this transaction.

I am the manager of bill and exchange at the foreign remittance department of African Development bank (ADB). I came to know you in my private search for a reliable and reputable person to handle this Confidential Transaction, which involves thetransfer of a huge sum of money to a foreign account requiring maximum confidence.

I am writing to you, following the impressive information received about you from the chambers of commerce. I believed that you are capable and reliable to champion this business opportunity. In my department we discovered an abandoned sum of $30m US dollars (Thirty million US dollars). In an account that belongs to one of our foreign customer who died along with his entire family On August 23, 2000 through Gulf Air Flight 72 with Airbus A320 crashed off, killing all 143 people on board and you can view the site for more details:http://www-tech.mit.edu/V120/N32/gulfair.32w.html.
