I posted "Original Cat" to the Smart Mobs group page in response to all the cat pictures that were popping up. It kind of goes along with the feeling of fatigue I get using Facebook sometimes. I think there is so much potential in Facebook groups for people to discuss things in an intelligent way, and to work on collaborative projects and it's disappointing to me that it doesn't work that way. But what else could I really expect? If you're not part of the solution, then you're part of the problem. (I'm looking at you Original Cat) Looking at it another way Facebook is just another form of recreation so who really cares?
Original Cat is part of the problem I'm sure. I just wanted to lampoon the over use of cat pictures with another cat picture. Use the of the language of the internet (serious cat) to discuss problems of meaning and meaninglessness on the internet. It's not meant to disparage anyone in particular, and I admit I love cat pictures. Just not all the time.
