How to Find Memes Like a Pro!

As a future Digital Marketer, I find myself fascinated with meme culture. I started my meme adventure as a young boy in high school when Vine came out. If you aren't familiar with Vine, it was a social media app that came out around 2014 and would allow users to play looping six-second videos. It was unimaginable that so many different types of content could be created with the limitation of just six seconds, but to everyone's amazement, it happened. I even tried to make some myself. Here are my examples below (I may regret this, but it's on the internet already so why hide it?): As you can see, I was quite the memer as a high schooler. Sadly, Vine is dead now. They had their last running day in the beginning of 2017, and the memers all still mourn the loss of Vine to this day. As Vine died, so did my source of memes. I was desperate to find the newest and greatest memes, and I'm still learning new sources to this day. As a beginning memer, it may be hard to ...

8 Amazing Reasons Why Snapchat is the Best App (Don't @ me)

Hypebeasts and the ZMOT

Let's face it, it seems like some tech companies have it easy when it comes to selling their newest products.  For example, Apple  sold completely out  of their physical stock of iPhone Xs just minutes after opening up for preorders. What does this mean on the customer's end?  Are they blindly buying then newest tech just because they want to be a trendsetter?  It definitely seems like it! Sometimes I wish I had that much money, but sadly, I am a poor college student, b ut these customers who seem so willing to throw their hard earned cash towards the latest and greatest technology are probably some of the hardest to please. Think about it...  How long after an iPhone release are the newest  rumors  for the next year's iPhone discussed? I've seen them as soon as one  month  after.  These rumors and the people that look at them are exactly what I want to talk about today.  ZMOT: Winning the Zero Moment of Truth...
