Twitter screws up your relationships

See if my previous post wasn’t enough…USA Today has an article in todays paper talking about how people rely too much on social networks like Twitter and Facebook while ignoring the people sitting right in front of them. 

I love the line:

As it turns out, some celebrity Twitterers — Britney Spears, 50 Cent, Kanye West, Barack Obama — have hired ghostwriters to supply their tweets because they’re just too busy

Come on!  Really!  Are you that impressed with yourself that you need someone else to make your life sound more interesting than it is.  Read the article here.

Bearman Breaks Down….Joins Twitter

With all the projects I am working on, I figured I would finally have to join the ranks of Twitter.  I know, probably by now the masses have moved on to the next cool thing but I have resisted long enough.

For those who follow this blog I have only found a few of you to follow via Twitter.

So if you are looking for me on Twitter I am at

I don’t plan on overusing  because:

a.  Have too much other things to do like draw and/or do actual work that I get paid for
b.  Don’t want to be a slave to Twitter like my friend Michael seems to think he has become. 
c.  Don’t care when you are wiping your butt so I am sure you don’t care when I am either.

But I will use to update on when I post something new or do something really newsworthy.  Like rescue a baby from a burning fire.

Extending Album Art Gallery

Some of us old enough to remember albums can remember listening to records and staring at the album art.  Well thanks to a tip from Hongkiat, you can see a gallery of “extended” album art.

It seems that B3TA.com had a contest to have posters “show us what happens beyond the borders of classic album sleeves”.

See all the entrants here but one of my favorites from P3te is:

The Gloomers

Sorry I have been a turd about posting and responding to comments this week.

I have been working some things as part of a new project I am contributing to that launches next week.

It’s call “The Gloomers” and is a new “social network” (I know I know, you can’t keep your facebook, linkedin, and myspace pages up to date as it is) and animated webisodes of a family called the Gloomers.  They are kind of a cross between the Simpsons and the Addams Family.  You can see mini webisodes on YouTube .

Now before you get all excited about how cool my animation is…note I have nothing to do with any part of that.  (including the voice overs)

The site launches on April 15 (TAX DAY in the United States) but I hope to give you a sample of some of the stuff I am working on before then, so please bear with me.
