I’m trying to decide what to do at the next Shadow Art Fair. While I want to construct my Hold a Trembling Artist shanty, I don’t think it’s going to happen by July 18. Right now, I’m considering a few possibilities. My favorite idea at the moment is to have a booth where I “friend” people in Facebook for $1. It would be kind of like a modern kissing booth. (I think it’s probably better karma-wise than painting Hitler mustaches on kids, or offering free “no questions asked” pet euthanasia, which are my two next best ideas.)
Speaking of Facebook, if you don’t already, you can “follow” this blog by clicking here. If I understand it correctly (which is highly doubtful), the system would then alert you whenever I post something new. At least I think that’s how it works. Of course, I also think the moon produces light.
And, as for the Shadow Art Fair, if you haven’t applied to be a vendor yet, you’d better hurry. We stop taking applications at the end of the month… If you want to apply (there’s no cost), just click here for details and impress us with your brilliant ideas.

Yep! I follow the blog on FB and my home page tells me whenever you update…it’s a nice feature.
Does this mean at the following SAF the booth could be “pay me a $1 and I’ll un-friend you”?
I can see there being a need for Facebook consultation services too.
Now that there’s a Craigslist Killer, I wonder how long it will be until there’s a Facebook Killer?
Maybe customers should be able to pump in additional dollars to get you to post flattering or witty comments on their profiles for a couple of months.
Facebook is self-amused fantasy protagonists and no antagonists. It’s cheap love: “Look at me with a tubetop and an empty shot glass.”
It’s dull. It’s desperate. It’s hopelessly inbred.
I’ll pay a dollar for one EOS post before I’d give a dime to your “fuck me I’m adorable” Facebook page. Other than that, I think it’s a fine idea. No offense to your sorority sisters.
“fuck me, i’m adorable” would make a nice t-shirt slogan. Mind if I use it, and sell it to all my Facebook friends?
And, for what it’s worth, I think you’re confusing Facebook with MySpace.
And you’re just mad because none of my sorority sisters will give you the time of day.
