Photojackers

The above is a detail of one of the finest of many fine examples of photojacking that can be found at This is Photobomb. Other prime examples from recent days include this one of two guys holding each other during a hockey match and this one of two blue men being upstaged by a bartender.

Am I the only one who didn’t realize that there was a word for photojacking until today?

The Decade in Review (in Seven Minutes)

I’ve become a big fan of these condense everything down to seven minutes videos that seem to pop up every now and again. There was one out to recap Lost before the premiere of season five, and there have been several others that I can’t seem to recall at the moment. And now, from Newsweek (by way of Kottke), here is a seven-minute summary of the past decade. It’s not everything that happened from 2000-2009, but it covers a lot. And I love the way that they end it by asking us to tell them what they missed. That’s old media embracing new media in a way you don’t often see.
