Any fad that starts off on the internet and recieves minor, temporary interest from the tabloid press. Such examples are the paris hilton video, all your base are belong to us, back orifice, child pornography, paedophilia/pedophilia, 14 year old hackers taking down the national grid or stealing money from credit cards etc.
