Facebook our teenage partner, our first social platform where we posted so many shits. I still remember I started Facebook when I was in class 9th when I posted my first ever photo on the social platform to show to the world with just 10 likes and no comments. And that time it feels like we had a much bigger and better platform to share the memories that we lived with our friends and families.

But as we grown we get used to it. We started posting :-

• What we ate?
• How we feel?
• What we have done the night before? and
• What we’ll do later and with whom?

But then something big happened. Suddenly Thumbs Up lost his respect when other Emojis showed up. Family photos lost its identity when Selfies showed up.

But the tables completely turned when ‘MEMES’ showed up on FB posts. That was the turning point of what we are seeing today. Most of us haven’t changed our profile since then.

No one can ever thought that one day these normal-looking weird jokes will take over the platform like this. They ate up my phone gallery. Shoutout to the memers who played so well. My greetings to them. Not gonna lie but you’ve done a great job, this new world gonna need a good memer.

Where It come from?

Do you really know the concept of memes? Where does it exactly come from? well, let’s take a look to the past.

A meme is a unit of cultural information spread by imitation. The meme is taken from a Greek ‘MIMEA’ meaning imitated and introduced in 1976 by British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins in his work “The Selfish Gene”.

History of meme

Taking a quote from Inception movie-

An idea is like a virus. Resilient. Highly contagious. And even the smallest seed of an idea can grow. It can grow to define or destroy you

COBB

And his concept is now trending worldwide and perhaps more contagious than any other virus.

These memes completely changed the way I look at the situation every time, even normal-looking photos. It just pumped up my bad habit of laughing at a serious moment.

Meme opened up a new world. It’s a new way to define something. It’s a new way of marketing. Have you ever seen Fevicol ad memes? Check out their FB page. It’s a new way to attract millions of followers to your page.

Meme holds the power either to make you internet sensation or to defame you overnight for your deeds. Even somewhat in the Politics, memes are getting their place secured which however catching the attention of youth.

We all know the concept of Demand & Supply. Due to huge demand, a lot of trollers and memers has entered the field with their meme pages. Simply put, Facebook is more like Memebook now.

Facebook Top Fan Badge

One of the latest updates on Facebook was the introduction of the Top-Fan badge or you can say a ‘little Jewel’ icon beside your name while commenting on any of the popular pages. It differentiates you from other followers and commenters on that page as it is publicly visible on a top fans list on that page’s community tab. Perhaps it may be a proud moment for you. Actually, it’s a reward you get for being actively engaging with that page including liking, commenting regularly, sharing posts, or watching videos.

Although, it’s just a Facebook algorithm behind the selection of worthy Top fans. But for page owners, it might help to analyze their page and content popularity, marketing efforts, and most importantly the community’s engagement with their posts.

What is the Advantage of getting Top Fan Badge?

Most probably you also got a notification in your Facebook notification tab saying something like, “CONGRATULATIONS! You’re a top fan of this page now, Comment now to show your top fan badge to others”.

But why is this important for you? Well, it’s a bit contradictory to go on that side therefore I refuse to comment on this. But only you know how you are getting benefit from being a top fan of a popular Facebook page or a popular brand.

I think having a top fan badge may give you a greater chance of being heard by the brand owners. For instance, if you are a top fan of the Cristiano Ronaldo page which is insanely popular, this may give you the satisfaction that your interactions aren’t going unnoticed.

Now, I really want to know if you have a top-fan badge, how it feels? Is this exciting at all? or Does it help you anyway? Because being a top fan badge owner of some certain meme pages, I don’t feel anything at all. Or perhaps it is just me.

But still, if there is anything where Facebook is working great is reminding Birthdays and showing your memories to remind you how ugly you were with some creepy photos. Even the comment section now is filled with ‘Someone mentioned you in a comment’ or ‘someone reacted to your post’ or ‘There is a popular post you may miss’.

Hopefully, we still have Instagram to continue posting shit on the walls. But that too for how long? Somethings wrong. I can feel it.
