Digital meme influences the art world. The worlds largest LOLcat so far?

San Franciso artist Josh Zubkoff has created a mural to LOLcats on the side of a building. I’d love to see more memes take on as graffiti.

Troy McClure SF got a great shot of the finished work.

Confused? LOLcats anthropomorphised with badly spelled captions have spawned LOLspk.

Still Confused…? speak to a Digital Planner.

Merciless Piss-Take or Ultimate Homage. Shreds on YouTube

A topic titled Amazing Rare Def Leppard is gonna get clicked on right. I came across one and did. This was the video. Give this a couple of minutes to get going.. trust me.

Fantastic video from Def Leppard

The summary said “This is a Def Leppard Parody. I made it after I saw a lot of shreds on youtube like StSander and others did. So take it easy, it’s only a parody! Have Fun!”

The other Shreds are also way up there on the madness scale. Even better is that it reminded me to post the sublime Chris de Burger video from Cartel Communique.

Update your Facebook status via Twitter

I’ve just got into Twitter, early days and who knows if it’ll stick. I do love the way it captures a moment though.

So if you use Facebook there’s a nifty little app that lets you keep updating your blog + mates, whilst it updates your status in the background.

http://apps.facebook.com/twitter/

UPDATE: There’s seems to be a problem with the official app at the moment. You can’t get into your Facebook admin page to change the settings. They’ve also added an forced “is twitter:” prefix to the status. Not cool. An alternative is Twittersync, but i’m hoping Twitter sort out their official client sharpish.

UPDATE x2: All fixed.

Notice any changes or anything weird?

I’ve upgraded the site to WordPress 2.5 and everything seems cool so far. It’s fixed some issues i had with posts from Ecto containing YouTube embed code, so the site should looks right again on Firefox 3 Beta. Post a comment if anything seems odd.

Also new is the Twitter status on the sidebar and i’ve added my Twitter and LinkedIn links to the Blogroll and Stalk page.

I’ll update the site soon, but i’m just cooling down from a hectic few weeks at work. I’ve just finished 2 pitches and delivered some nice work for Sony PSP. I’ll post details soon. For now it’s feet up for the bank holidays.
