I could be wrong but I believe this is the first interactive google homepage. If this is the case, it would also mark googles first homepage ad since Pacman is not only an icon but trademarked NAMCO character.</p> <p>The Pacman homepage appears to be a pacman javascript function. There is no loader which is bad web behavior since you have no idea that the game is playable for the first 5 seconds while the code/graphics and sound load. So,basically to make this experience possible for the 5% of people that don’t have flash on their machine, Google decided to make the experience crappy for 95% of the people with a computer bought after 1995. I did load google classic on my iphone and noticed I got a jittery version of the game “running” although I, of course, had no way of playing the game since there are no arrow keys on my phone.</p> <p>Click image for the full sprites board!</p>http://www.optikablog.com/post/619834083http://www.optikablog.com/post/619834083Fri, 21 May 2010 12:06:00 -0700<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_l27xurzvVJ1qzn645o1_r1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>via <a href="http://www.jonahl.com/drop/turn.jpg" target="_blank"><a href="http://www.jonahl.com" target="_blank">www.jonahl.com</a></a></p>http://www.optikablog.com/post/587457806http://www.optikablog.com/post/587457806Mon, 10 May 2010 12:23:00 -0700<a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2010/05/04/financial/f083228D71.DTL&tsp=1">Feds to look at Apple policy on programming tools</a>http://www.optikablog.com/post/577753461http://www.optikablog.com/post/577753461Thu, 06 May 2010 20:24:37 -0700<a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2010/04/27/world/27powerpoint.html?no_interstitial">We Have Met the Enemy and He Is PowerPoint</a>http://www.optikablog.com/post/553962508http://www.optikablog.com/post/553962508Tue, 27 Apr 2010 12:07:37 -0700<a href="http://mashable.com/2010/04/21/facebook-kills-facebook-connect/">Facebook to Kill Facebook Connect</a>: <p>Oh no…please! Facebook…I will still go on the website, I promise.</p>http://www.optikablog.com/post/538816905http://www.optikablog.com/post/538816905Wed, 21 Apr 2010 12:09:32 -0700<a href="http://adage.com/digiconf10/article?article_id=143311">The World's Best Banner Ads (And Why They Worked) - Advertising Age - Special Report: Digital Conference 2010</a>http://www.optikablog.com/post/535801053http://www.optikablog.com/post/535801053Tue, 20 Apr 2010 06:59:42 -0700<a href="http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/art_is_on_ledge_of_insanity_myJvQGRvbL7JgtLjUuA7YI">Art is on ledge of insanity - NYPOST.com</a>: <p>There is a statue on the building across from my office window.</p>http://www.optikablog.com/post/526127458http://www.optikablog.com/post/526127458Fri, 16 Apr 2010 10:00:48 -0700<a href="http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=125811666&ps=cprs">New York's Hipsters Too Cool For The Census : NPR</a>http://www.optikablog.com/post/518346475http://www.optikablog.com/post/518346475Tue, 13 Apr 2010 07:14:07 -0700<img src="http://27.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kzc7huaCwX1qzn645o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Does anybody feel stupid right now?
