Interestingness

A colleague started a Flickr group on Thursday called the Onion Face Paint Project. He provided a picture of some onions and asked invitees to draw a face on them. I did a quick one and then a more considered effort which I posted that night. Since then the Flickr community seems to have gone crazy for silly images of vegetables. The Explore page is where the site showcases the top 500 interesting photos on the site. My onions were on that, and got to #128 and #26 respectively in all of Flickr images on that day!

It's amazing how silly things can become so popular. I shall enjoy the Flickr fame while it lasts, and then fade back into obscurity once again.

The interweb is weird.


EDIT: One of them went up to #8 for a bit!
