20

a series of different covers for one issue of a magzine may not be new, but it is seldom done as well as this fabulous set for the 20 years jubileum (has it really been that long?) of dazed

shot by co-founder and photographer ‘rankin’ and featuring a whole bunch of typical ‘dazed’ cuture icons, mind you it would have been fine by me to just do 20 different covers of ‘polly’

united nations of tweet

…in relative terms, the world’s top tweeting nation are the Netherlands, with just over 22% of the Dutch online population using Twitter. The US, at 8%, is far behind Brazil (almost 22%), Venezuela (21%) and Indonesia (19%). So it’s a fair guess that a majority of the 200 million tweets generated every day are in languages other than English…

the world as depicted through the varied languages used on twitter, as usual with other similar projects the whole continent of africa is virtually invisible, surprise ‘hot spot’ on this one is the netherlands… see the hi-res image here
