Weekly Poll Chart 6

In this poll, we want to find what is the main reason most of you out there view Internet Meme. There are a lot of reasons for one to do this. It can range from one finding for entertainment to someone who got bored and just randomly surfing the Internet and look for it. But in the poll result that we have analyzed, the votes for the reasons are rather equal.

There are two reasons sharing the highest number of votes which is “To have a laugh” and “Others” at twenty nine percent. Many people these days like to surf the Internet to search for pictures, jokes or even videos and have a laugh. And Internet Meme is no different either as some of it out there can make people laugh and create entertainment in the process. Perhaps a good example of this will be the Lady Gaga’s Poker Face Chinese New Year version that we mentioned in the previous post.

On the other hand, respondents who voted for the “Others” option could be because they can or want to communicate with others about Internet Meme. Many of them may like to socialize with other Internet users through Internet Meme. With many Internet Meme out there, many Internet users are bound to comment on those memes and at the same time, the users can communicate with one another. We guess this is another way of making friends.

And funnily enough, three of the four remaining reasons that were given received the same number of votes with each obtaining fourteen percent. The first of the three is Internet users want to see what the latest or current Internet Meme is. Most of us like to keep ourselves updated and even though Internet Meme may not be in the same category as political news or anything like that, people will still like to know about the latest things so that they enjoy them while it is still popular. Nobody likes to leave themselves in the dust.

People say curiosity kills the cat and maybe that applies in this case as well. Being curious is nothing wrong but when someone is, they will begin to search for more information about the particular topic and in this case, Internet Meme. He or she may have heard or seen an Internet Meme somewhere and they may begin to wonder “Hmm, what is that?”. In other words, they get curious. So, they will start to find more and more things about Internet Meme.

The third reason that also received fourteen percent is “Got bored”. This could easily happen when the person has nothing to do at home or even at work after all the tasks has been completed. So, they could view Internet Meme to kill time and at the same time, he or she maybe able to learn more about Internet Meme and gets a lot of fun from it.

And finally, based on the poll’s result, no one seems to view Internet Meme to comment on it which is rather strange in some ways. Anyways, what do you think of this result? Share your thoughts with us.
