microMARKETING as fashion statement

Jane Quigley (@jquig99 on Twitter) snapped a shot of me wearing my new microMARKETING custom Nike's for the first time. These kicks match the book jacket (kinda) and are super comfortable. And no, my jeans aren't that short - I was hiking the legs so the custom inscription would show.

social knitworking

I'm no fashionista but a post about this initiative caught my eye -- artist (designer?) Hillary Grant teams up with geeky digital technology research organization Distance Lab to create fugly knitted scarves that abstracts your social networking activities (relationships, content, etc) into a graphical pattern.
