Integrating Online Games & Social Networks
March 20th 2008 | Posted by: Adam Martin
(via Techcrunch UK reporting from Plugg)
‘Max Niederhofer of Atlas Venture gave a great presentation on how online games are already big and only going to get bigger, especially in the casual games via the browser. Gaming is a 20 billion dollar industry now and 75% of casual gamers are female. Since a 3D version of Flash will come out in 2009 there is now an opportunity for startups to build Flash-based online games, disrupt the ‘printer cartridge’ model of the console market which requires high-priced games to work. Integrating online games with social networks could be a big deal.’

Max and I have never met, if we had, I’m sure we’d have disagreed in the past on subjects such as ‘feminine hygiene’ or ‘verbal dexterity’. But I’m glad to say this time, I’m in agreement with you Max and if Stardoll is the browser’s Barbie then PMOG sounds like it just might be the browser’s Shoe collection.

Big In Japan
March 19th 2008 | Posted by: Adam Martin
In my head I’ve confused hearing Big In Japan with the Duke of Edinburgh and tartan slippers and maybe a babysitter called Rita, so why not mashup (which is modern for ‘confuse’) some pretty typography that is literally Big In Japan, with er… the actual Big In Japan, except it’s less of a mashup and more of a side by side, on top of each other.

Decapitator
January 24th 2008 | Posted by: Adam Martin
“Renegade artist and head-hunter the Decapitator has been bombarding the streets of London with a signature style of graffiti tag - eerily removing the heads from major adverts around town, replacing them with ghastly, gory stumps. (Before and after images of a gruesomely guillotined model in a print ad, right).
Based on the images uploaded to his/her Flickr stream, “The East London Decapitator” as he/she has been dubbed, is largely striking mainstream advertisements…”

My Fat Canteen friend Philine sent me a link to FFFound.
‘FFFFOUND! is a web service that not only allows the users to post and share their favorite images found on the web, but also dynamically recommends each user’s tastes and interests for an inspirational image-bookmarking experience!!’
It’s fffffu… it’s fffffuc… it’s really rather pretty and addictive, a lot like Penelope Cruz if she were made of crack, I imagine.
