Ah, damn, this is the sort of thing I used to love to do. When I wasn't so fricken old. Nice find!

that's amazing. You know, when I first saw the description, I thought was going to be a post about drunken, consequence-free and promiscuous sex. I'm decidedly less disappointed than I could have been. sweet post.

Robot - didn't I see that original post-it note Mario on your blog? Badass fonts by the way.

I think he means me, pantsrobot. Might've been on my links sidebar, I don't remember. And might I say, nice font choice on YOUR blog ;-)

Very cool, indeed. Best prank I ever pulled in college was freaking out the newspaper advisor by hanging "surveillance devices" made out of old bulk-roll film tins and LEDs.

Great stuff! Now why can't those darned Walmart kids do something constructive like this.

What a great idea to work with that space. I've been toying with the idea of using post-its in a project for awhile, since it's so fun to work on a grid... I've also always loved the idea of working with automated building lights to change what the side of a building looks like at night (and watching Hackers last night just reminded me of it again). Maybe this will inspire me to finally get around to doing the post-it project. Any suggestions as to subjects that would look great in this format up somewhere in Philly? ;)

meg6212: Robert Indiana's LOVE has been re-worked so many times, how about Post-its? After all, it was already a postage stamp.

Thanks sixpack - that is a good suggestion. :)

There is a bit of a sore spot in Philly regarding Love Park since the city brought the X-Games here a few years ago, only to follow up by taking one the most well known skate spots in the world away from the skaters.
