What is memetics and why is it so useful for the steemit community ?

If you are reading this, you probably know what a meme is, but did you know the original definition of a meme also describes a system or unit of cultural information transfer between people?

That unit of cultural information could be a page in the Bible, a ww2 recruiting poster, or a modern tweet.
News pundits, book writers, and social media bloggers all create memes which compete for sales as well as for entry into the minds of the population.

Memetics is about looking at the nuanced details of a meme or group of memes and determining what makes certain ones outperform others in getting more likes, retweets, and shares.

Memetics is designed to work well for groups of people who work together towards specific goals on social media, but it can also be highly useful information to the individual as well.

Memetics companies are a new phenomenon, although the theory behind the science is from the late 70's. The science behind the theory itself may or may not prove completely accurate, and some revisions may be made, we won't know until we have more data collected and a more refined understanding of culture exchange and the human consciousness driving it.

What we do have is a working model that we are measuring and studying on a daily basis via social media in order to refine and produce techniques for individuals and small businesses to compete on social media against larger corporate entities by using asymmetrical strategies combined with new advances in Memetics.

Memetics is such an interesting field of study because there are so many potential applications for it to grow social media accounts. Our companies new blog presence here with a non-funded newbie minnow account is part of a memetics research project in itself to see how Memetics could possibly be used by different types of small startups without investing.

We would like to form a sub community here on steemit and build up a network of people who have an interest in Memetics and culture science and how to apply them favorably to make cryptocurrency and blockchain networks like steemit work well for us as individuals and also work better as a community, we want to add value whenever we can.

We have started discord channel TheOMWC if you want to come and take part in an evolving Memetics research project. We plan to be here for a long time learning how to use Memetics to grow this awesome steemit community with your help!

Thank you!
