I am a huge fan of
Cake Wrecks,
Post Secret,
Not Always Right ,
Texts from Last Night not only because they are fun to distract my brain midday while i eat my lunch at my desk (with the exception of TFLN since is blocked by the state), but also because I think they are amazingly inspired and clever. I mean the fact that Jen of Cake Wrecks collects photos of cakes, yes cakes, makes hilarious comments and posts them on the web to amuse us daily and then makes a living out of it is sheer genius! And Post Secret is so hauntingly charming and so full of sociological insight that one could teach an college course about it. So why can't I come up with MY idea for a cleaver and charming blog topic that will snowball into the next must-read blog? Something to collect, that people send in, that reflects the decay or beauty of our society? I mean have you ever read
Found Magazine ?! That shit is sheer brilliance! I have a co-worker who post photos on her Facebook page of funny things she finds just out in the real world. Nothing fancy, just simple experiences, feelings and observations of the complete silliness around us. I mean
Shit My Dad Says went from a Twitter feed to a TV show. I don't want fame or a book deal, just an inspired idea. Damn, wish I was that clever.
