Fleeting Moments of Fame
"In the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes," said the late artist Andy Warhol, and in the blogosphere, seems like that fame-osity is happening now.
Make yourself famous
For those who like their fame on a magazine cover, go head, knock yourself out and design one yourself at Flickr's Magazine Cover interface, today's top blog post. A "handy-dandy utility"is the folks at NetworkWorld call it.
Time-travel fame
If fame for you arrived in 1985, travel back in time with Engadget, for a look at new technology then. Ah, for the days of gigantic cell phones and the Amiga 1000....
Musical fame
Robert Moog, the man for whom the Moog synthesizer was named, is today's burstiest person for his contribution to the musical world. He died Sunday, and BlogPulse Spotlight has more details.... Also making one last "appearance" is the late Hunter S. Thompson, whose ashes were sent into the atmosphere via cannonfire over the weekend. "There goes Hunter!" indeed...
Political fame...rising and falling
Anti-war protester/mother Cindy Sheehan remains more rank-worthy today among bloggers than President George Bush. And today's No. 5 most-shared link shows his poll numbers dropping, dropping, dropping.
