Know Your Meme is a website created by Rocketboom in December 2008 that documents various memes and other internet phenomenon. It bears a slight resemblance to Wikipedia in the sense that anybody with an account can contribute meme entries, images, and comments.

History

Know Your Meme's history dates all the way back to December 2007, as "evergreen content" reports.[1] In December 2008, the official website was started up. In their August 09, 2009 episode focusing on the meme Weegee, they mentioned Youtube Poop as "clips of cartoons and other assorted junk strung together to form nonsensical moving images on Youtube."
