Internet phenomena. Memes. Grist for the e-mail forwarding mill. Whatever
you call them, Web fads are entertaining, unintended consequences of life
on the World Wide Web. Once the masses could put anything online easily,
they turned up weird fetishes, hilarious parody, jaw-dropping narcissism,
and moments of brilliance. And over the past 10 years, some of these
ideas broke through to the mainstream. Whether it was dancing hamsters,
a kid enjoying his day as a Jedi Knight, or the sudden ability to publish
your thoughts online with just a few simple clicks, the following 10 Web
fads still make us laugh, make us wonder, or make us feel guilty enough
to update our blogs.
