Pretty much the title, does anybody know if there is such a thing as a history of internet memes?

I think it would be really cool to learn about how internet memes grew and represented the cultural zeitgeist of their time. Thanks!

    Man I feel like I could try to cobble together something like this as someone permanently online for over a decade. Interesting to see certain formats of meme (i.e bait and switch/interruption style memes) persist even if the specific form changes (rickrolling became gnoming became stickbugging, etc)
