In fact, I started a humble little charity-based blog recently - it's called <a href="http://thegivinghands.org">The Giving Hands</a> (but I have yet to determine the direction I want it to go). Any suggestions? Ouh yea, will take grab this meme :) I’m also a sucker for charity!

It also borders on link farming, which would make me less than willing to participate in such a meme. “Now there might be memes that work where everyone links everyone else, but that is not something I would be keen to take part in as it would mean too much effort…”

Also link to the person who started it, or at least started your branch if the thing has been around a while and the origin is consigned to history. If someone else contributes something particularly interesting feel free to reference them but the only links as a participant you can *expect* are from those you tagged. "So-and-so tagged me with ____ meme".

Ok I see the charities being passed from blog to blog but not the tagged people. SEORefugee tagged 5 people, Then I tagged 5 (plus his 5) Then you tagged 5 totally different people. Shouldnt the tagged people be carried over from each blog? If they dont, you're only going to be tagged once? Am I missing something? Man I’m feeling pretty stupid but its just not clicking for me in one respect.

Curtesy would require you to link back to the original blogger though if you know who started it. Some memes have questions you have to answer, others are lists you have to copy and paste and add to, each meme is different. In fact the only thing in common between memes is that they propogate from one blog/person to another somehow. With this one each person who continues the list copies the list from the person before them as far as I understand it. Had it not been for charity I would not have taken part at all, I am not a fan of this type of meme. As far as looking up in technorati, what I mean by that is every other day I look in technorati to see if anyone has mentioned my blog. If I see someone new has linked to my blog I look to see if I have to respond somehow, ie. I have been "tagged". I use the link over in my sidebar, "Blogs that link here". OK, while most people wait to be tagged you don’t have to, if you like the meme just run with it. Curtesy would require you to link back to the original blogger though if you know who started it.

Excuse my naive question... just want to make sure that my understanding is correct... The idea is to improve the search ranking of specific charities. Each blogger that lists the charities' improves the ranking of the charities. Blogs that are heavily read will likely result in more "hits." Did I understand meme (in the blogsphere and Web world) correctly? Separately, what is it that one is looking up in Technorati? Thanks...
