With the Internet arrival there are great the changes that have been happening in our everyday life, from communicating us with hundreds of persons across chats and social networks up to gaining access to multimedia content (music, videos, text …) of immediate form. But the Internet power goes moreover there and thanks to the big network we see to be born and to grow in a little time phenomena that turn into sources of million visits, there are the so called "memes".

Going deep a little more into the meaning of the word meme in Internet, this one can understand herself like a creation, already there are videos, photographic assemblies, songs … that thanks to the mouth to mouth become popular and turn into real fashions overnight. Likewise, as soon as the this meme was created it is possible to endure like a virus as it multiplies his diffusion and can change or modify his content thanks to the participation of the users.

Next we will do a brief revision to some of these Internet phenomena that have remained already recorded in the memory of all.


Keyboard Cat (Cat pianist)

At this point it is difficult that nobody knows this orange cat that decked with a blue T-shirt delights insiders and outsiders with a recital of digital keyboard. Although the recording of the performance of the cat was done by his proprietor, a North American humorist, in the 80s, it is not even it does relatively little when Keyboard cat turns into a masses phenomenon. The motive over which the feline jumps to the reputation has origin in an assembly of an Internet user who decides to realize an explosive combination in which it mixes the fall not comical at all of a minúsválido for a few escalators with the performance of the pussy-cat. From this moment Keyboard cat has appeared in hundreds of videos with the by-name of “play him off” putting sound-track to falls, blows, accidents and different physical damages.
