Social Media Websites in Illustrated Form

Published on 12/3/07 in Technology
Feast your eyes! Del.icio.us, Reddit, Slashdot, and Digg in cartoon form.

Three things:
  • It's monday
  • It's day one of being caffeine free  - I'm shooting for a week
  • I'm leaving for Hawaii tomorrow on vacation

These things being said, my work ethic is in the gutter.  So rather than doing real work I decided to sketch illustrated versions of a couple of my favorite social media and tech news websites.

Reddit
reddit

Del.icio.us
delicious

Slashdot
slashdot

Digg
digg_400

I live near there... It's a wonderful bastion of latte-sipping liberal nerds, college students, weirdos, and tech startupers.

Since the first users of social networking sites are likely to be friends of the site founders, they're likely to set the tone of the site.
