Following his A-Z of Awesomeness, which recently featured on Pete Ashton’s blog as an example of social networking success, Neill Cameron has returned with another daily “fun, stupid Internet thing” that he’s calling Hashtag Funnies:
(Neill Cameron’s Hashtag Funnies – #gotacrushon. Isn’t that lovely?)
Something so silly and lightweight shouldn’t be resulting in something that looks so very polished and accomplished should it? It does when Neill Cameron’s involved:
“Here are the rules of Hashtag Funnies:
1. Every day I draw a comic strip based on / inspired by / tangentially related to one of that day’s trending topics on Twitter.
2. Drawing the strip must not take more than 1 hour. (On account of how I do have rather a lot of actual work to do. This is really just meant as a warm-up exercise, kind of thing.)
…that’s about it for the rules. I just thought this would be a fun way to do something that I’ve been meaning to do for a while, which is to draw some comics strips, for fun. They may or may not make sense, or be funny, or be remotely well drawn. I may or may not have any idea what the hashtag / trending topic is actually the hell about. I just thought it would be, y’know, a fun thing.”
