<p>The artist, Hugh Macleod, who came up with <a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/003388.html">the Blue Monster for Microsoft</a> visited Facebook&#8217;s headquarters today and I filmed him. If you haven&#8217;t been here for long you might not realize that I love Hugh&#8217;s cartoons and have for years.</p>
<p>This is &#8220;micromedia.&#8221; Very short video.</p>
<p>I loved his thoughts on social objects so today when we went to Facebook I noted that he&#8217;s a social object producer and it was interesting that he was visiting the social graph producer.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.kyte.tv/ch/6118-scobleizer-sponsored-by-seagate/66631-hugh-at-faceb">He ended up sayin</a>g &#8220;Zuckerberg, you just watch out.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.kyte.tv/ch/6118-scobleizer-sponsored-by-seagate/66638-hugh">I also have a video</a> of Hugh working his Twitter. Off camera we talked about his thoughts on <a href="http://www.gapingvoid.com/Moveable_Type/archives/004285.html">advertising and its role in decommodifying things</a>.</p>
<p>Heh.</p>
<p>Oh, <a href="http://www.techmeme.com/071029/p1#a071029p1">NBC&#8217;s new Hula video distribution scheme</a> is getting lots of notice over on TechMeme. I don&#8217;t know why I mention that here. I put a couple of the best articles on my link blog, but there&#8217;s a lot better stuff to read about <a href="http://www.google.com/reader/shared/14480565058256660224">on my link blog</a> than the HulaHype. Look for the travel API article by ProgrammableWeb, for instance.</p>
