Has a good list on page 3 of all those closet type sites that are currently enjoying their time in the monitor light.
New ad spot for The Guardian. Amazing on several levels, one of which is how a fable as old as the Three Little Pigs can be used to tell a story about the future of journalism.

Tumblr of the day is thecomposites, where police composite sketch software is used to draft likenesses of famous characters in literature. Recognize this guy? It’s Humbert Humbert, from Vladimir Nabokov’s Lolita. Exceptionally handsome male; slow-moving, tall, with soft dark hair and a gloomy but all the more seductive cast of demeanor.
Everything is a Remix: The Matrix
Kirby Ferguson, a New York-based filmmaker, and friends have been working on a four-part video series called Everything is a Remix.
Here, to demonstrate their point, they juxtapose scenes from the Matrix with films that it drew inspiration from. For example, as we move along the timeline:
- 0:27 - Fist of Legend (1994)
- 0:38 - Tai-Chi Master (Twin Dragons) (1993)
- 0:44 - Fist of Legend (1994)
- 0:48 - Tai-Chi Master (Twin Dragons) (1993)
- 0:53 - Drunken Master (1978)
Click through for other influences that range from a Philip K. Dick speech (1:45) to Total Recall (2:30) to Alice in Wonderland (3:24).
