Getting back to the fun

You know that feeling where you’re working on things you love so much that it becomes kind of tiresome? Where you still enjoy what you’re doing, but it’s just on the edge of feeling like work? I’ve been there for a little while, but I’m happy to say that I had an experience a few days ago that recentered me.

A friend and I were discussing mashups over breakfast - sites like Flickrvision, ChicagoCrime, and the like - and somehow, we also started talking about LOLcats. Jokingly, we started talking about a site that would translate your friends’ tweets from Twitter into LOLspeak and insert them into appropriate images from Flickr automatically. I didn’t think much more of it until I got back to my hotel room that evening, but in a fit of … something, I decided to give it a try. Without further ado, then, here are the fruits of my labor. I give you … LOLTwitter!
