A warning for readers: I won’t post anything on the next few days because I intend to attend the Festival Internacional de Curtas-metragens de São Paulo (São Paulo International Short Film Festival). I will try to be back on the weekend. See you!
Update: before I go, a nice resource for your enjoyment is Wikipedia’s article on Wile E. Coyote.
Do you remember of the great ACME products? Now you can find them on The Original Illustrated Catalog Of ACME Products. Some very useful products like Iron Carrot, Trick Balls and Propelled Unicycle (satisfaction guaranteed). I will want some Super Speed Vitamins and Anvils. I loved the episodes with those “bigornas”! That is the best use for an anvil.

Picturing Modern America:1880 – 1920.
Among the many ways that US society became modern between 1880 and 1920 was in the production and consumption of images. With the growth of new media technologies such as photography, chromolithography, film, and newspaper printing, Americans began to document and narrate visually their changing world as never before. And this occurred at a moment when how Americans pictured themselves was of increasing importance – a period of unprecedented immigration and migration that for many people threatened the very notion of who Americans were.
The artist Fernanda Cohen grew up in Buenos Aires and moved to New York City to study illustration at the School of Visual Arts. Her amusing works have movement, happiness and a great use of colours.
Conclave Obscurum presents the portfolio of Oleg Paschenko. The site navigation isn’t so friendly, but it’s worth lose some time to see his illustrations, videos, typography. Link suggested by male.dei.
Alessia Pierdomenico is an independent photojournalist based in Rome, Italy. She works extensively for Reuters from 2000 and her photographs have appeared in many publications. Her portfolio is fabulous.
Some of you may had notice that Michelle left the link blogging and Life In The Present ist kaput. But she kept Tiny Bubbles and Captured, her blogs for poetry and pictures.
In the same week Mark said goodbye to the link blog Exclamation Mark and after some days decided to transform it into a cinema blog with reviews. The new blog is Exclamation Mark’s B-Movie Reviews and already has some nice reviews. But Check Mark and Christ Portrayed still work as usual.
MrBaliHai and Sebastian made posts about those news with some interesting notes. Sebastian talks about how he started his blog and MrBaliHai makes a reflection about link blogging.
One more blogger is “a little bored of blogging”: maledei. He left the blog, but I hope that he will come back, because he always had great links about art. I understand their reasons for leaving link blogging and about not being so fun anymore, but I will miss their blogs.
Things will still work here, more slowly, but I will keep going. I’m was a bit upset about people “stealling” links, now I’m upset about people using the images that are hosted on my server and posting some of the links that I suggested with my images (using my server again), without any credit. Since I’m hosted on a pay server, and there are many sites that offers free hosting, I’m not happy with people doing this. I’m also busy with other things, but I like to blog the way that I do. I won’t leave this any time soon, even with all those problems and the problems reported by Michelle, Mark, MrBaliHai and some others. And thanks for reading me.
