Save the Whales, Twitter!
Those of you who are Twitter users like I am are probably just as frustrated with the number of crashes they've been having as of late. It seems like every other time I try accessing the site I'm greeted with their error message - a whale that's being lifted by a flock of birds.
It's gotten so bad, though, that some people are beginning to take it out on the poor whale. For example, my friend Keith Hopper had his own take on the whale art, with his version featuring the aftermath of the whale being dropped by those birds. This got me thinking about depictions of whales in art, which led me to mock up these alternative versions of the Twitter error message:
Seen any other creative interpretations of the Twitter whale? If so, please tag them twitterwhale on Flickr, del.icio.us, technorati, etc so we can follow along. Meanwhile, hopefully Twitter will get its act together and make these crashes a thing of the past, so the poor Twitter whale can fly off with his avian friends in peace and harmony. -andy
