Memes

From Pelennor

The following is a list of memes which may help describe the philosophies of Pelennor. This is similar in purpose to O'Reilly Media's map of ["Web 2.0" memes], as a means to provide context to a highly arbitrary buzzword. (Though we all know "Web 1.5" would have been more accurate, conceptually!) Maybe Pelennor will help usher in "Web 3.0".. No way! This stuff is far grander than "the web" as we know it today!

OK, on to the memes:
