SXSW Hates Cats Too
Author: Brian Wynne Williams20 Aug
And they clearly read my blog. I just tried to check out the Panel Picker, and got this:
Now that’s an error message. It takes the blame, is amusing without being cute, and even gives you something to do (email Lindsey). The only thing I’d add is to say that an alert had already been generated (email, log, whatever) and so emailing Lindsey directly is optional.

One Response for "SXSW Hates Cats Too"
I agree. This cat error message thing has gone a little too far. Its not even that i dislike cats… i even enjoy a good http://www.stuffonmycat.com/ from time to time… i just don’t get what is so funny about them continuously showing up when something goes wrong. I think an error message is a great place to be frank, witty, or even conceptual. I just don’t think the cat thing is that original.
