I did a few more ‘y’s, but got bored.
Wiki Dependency of the Day: Katie Notopoulos is using her Twitter account to catalog the complaints emanating from Millennials worried about how the Great Wikipedia Blackout of 2012 is going to affect their school projects.
Lessons in procrastination. Also, don’t ever cite Wikipedia in your paper.
I did not know that this existed. Neat.
It’s funny how the marketing materials became more popular than the software they were trying to market. Although Opencola the company is defunct, the recipe to their open source pop lives on.

I’m still rooting for my boy Wales, even though I turned off the Wale-ifying script (that got real annoying, real fast). Wales has a wider selection of banners, and Wikipedia’s usefulness to me (and most everyone) blows WikiLeaks’ out of the water. All of that black space in Assange’s banner is awkward and he has a very diabolical look to him. To be fair, though, Assange is the better looking of both of them.

Some totally jealous guys are slammin’ on Wikipedia founder, Jimmy Wales, because his face is showing up all over the site asking for donations. I’m totally crushin’ on this hunk, so for a limited time (now until it gets really annoying for me), clicking anywhere on this page will generate one of four images I grabbed from Wikipedia’s plea for donations.
Here is the source code, feel free to use on your own site. I made the z-index negative so that you can enjoy his sexy face AND still enjoy my sexy blog.
$(document).ready(function(){
$(document).click(function(e){
var $exe = e.pageX - 82;
var $why = e.pageY - 85;
var $imageToShow = 'http://jennschiffer.com/css/jimmywales/wales' + Math.floor(Math.random()*4) + '.png';
$(document.createElement("img"))
.attr({ src: $imageToShow, title: 'JIMMY WALES ALL OVER MY WEB' })
.addClass("jimmyWales")
.appendTo(document.body)
.css('position', 'absolute')
.css('top', $why)
.css('left', $exe)
.css('z-index', -10);
});
});
Also, please donate to Wikipedia - I did. Not only is it an amazing and groundbreaking source of information that EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US USE, I really want Mr. Wales to know that his campaign is working. I don’t mind seeing that face whenever I go to Wikipedia.
Edit: I apologize for the repost - I deleted the original ‘Photo’ post and made it this ‘Text’ post. I’m working on being less lazy with Tumblr. As the great Kanye West once said, “IT’S A PROCESS.”
