                         Transclusions from the edge

Heh.

About a week and a half ago, I wrote about the transclusions of images [1] on
the web, mainly, transclusions of my images by other people (and of the pages
I could see, never an attribution). Last week I pointed to Mike Taht's rant
about branding [2] and was inspired to finally do the Photo Friday picture on
packaging [3].

I found out today that Mike Taht transcluded that image on his site [4]. I
found it very amusing, given the chain of events. Even cooler that he's heard
of, and read about Xanadu [5].

And for the record, we met sometime in 1999 or 2000 when Mark [6] and I were
called over to the company he was working for (which doesn't seem to be
around anymore) for a kind of semi-let's-talk type interview and we were
introduced to Mike.
