Many of my projects (both silly personal stuff and actual client-related work) have gotten press coverage. Here's where I keep track of it, so my fragile ego can be periodically shored up.
A goofy project that emails you the book Dracula in 'real time', on the days it happens to the characters. It got called 'probably the most delightful thing on the internet right now', 'the coolest book club on the internet', and has its own Know Your Meme explainer page.
But the BIG outpouring of attention was all on Tumblr, where it was adopted as a whole new fandom, and took the top position in trending topics for a week solid. There's an outpouring of jokes, memes, and close readings at the #dracula daily tag. I also got to go on the delightful Big Week on Tumblr podcast to talk about it!
It's a fun idea that's gotten a range of coverage. The New York Times referred to me as "some guy."
