Heh.
About a week and a half ago, I wrote about the transclusions of images on the web, mainly,
transclusions of my images by other people (and of the pages I
could see, never an attribution). Last week I pointed to Mike Taht's rant about branding and was inspired to
finally do the Photo Friday picture on
packaging.
I found out today that Mike
Taht transcluded that image on his site. I found it very
amusing, given the chain of events. Even cooler that he's heard of, and
read about Xanadu.
And for the record, we met sometime in 1999 or 2000 when Mark and I were called over to
the company he was working for (which doesn't seem to be around anymore) for
a kind of semi-let's-talk type interview and we were introduced to Mike.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
It is assumed that every brand name, slogan, corporate name,
symbol, design element, et cetera mentioned in these pages is a
