A meme (pronounced /miːm/)[1] comprises any idea or behavior that can pass from one person to another by learning or imitation. Examples include thoughts, ideas, theories, gestures, practices, fashions, habits, songs, and dances. Memes propagate themselves and can move through the cultural sociosphere in a manner similar to the contagious behavior of a virus.
So, I guess chain letters are technically a meme, although it's a stretch of the definition.

On LJ a Meme is anything that one person does and then other people do. There are lots of them, like list 30 of you itunes songs and we'll guess them, or tell everyone where your icons came from or whatever. It's a meme. (Which I will forever pronounce may-may).
