*NANOG's Blast from the Digital Past*
*One of the Internet's Earliest "Memes"*

Dancing hamsters anyone? Throwback to the late nineties, *when this dated
meme would have been the latest in digital entertainment *to roll out of
your email.* In fact, you may have been pranked with these critters.
*A trending
office joke at the time was to set *Hamster Dance*as your colleague's
browser homepage.

*According to KnowYourMeme
<https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/hampster-dance>, *Hampster Dance is "one of
the earliest single-serving sites." Set to the annoyingly good, and
instantly stuck-in-your-head, sped-up melodies of *Whistle Stop* by Roger
Miller, the meme features rows of dancing hamster GIFs.
