I was reading BoingBoing this morning and was pleasantly surprised to see a familiar photo. A few months ago, I mentioned my friend Elizabeth Hickok's photos of Jell-O sculptures of San Francisco in a comment on
klwalton's LJ. Anyway, I e-mailed Liz to congratulate her on the nifty-sounding show at the Exploratorium that she's going to be featured in on Friday, and she wrote back to say that my little LJ comment had indirectly spawned a whole bunch of publicity (including a previous appearance on BoingBoing that I must have somehow missed in my daily skimming). I thought that was neat. I tend to assume that nothing I write on LJ actually makes it into the real world (unlike Usenet, which had the weirdest ways of popping up in my life back when I posted there). So, the moral of the story is to be careful about what you write on the Internet and make sure you mention your talented artist (or writer or musician or whatever) friends.
