Check me out. I'm in the New York Times Magazine!

Posted on February 1, 2009 11:07 AM by Joel Comm

A few weeks ago when iFart was at the height of its popularity, I was contacted by Rob Walker. Rob writes the Consumed article for the New York Times Magazine, published every Sunday.

He thought that the success of iFart was an interesting barometer of American pop culture and asked if I would do an interview.

Of course, I was delighted to provide whatever information he wanted.

The article was just published in today's edition!

It's a nice piece that has two paragraphs discussing iFart and myself. The author even mentions my upcoming book, Twitter Power. I'm sure my publisher at Wiley is happy about that. :-)

Here's a photo of page 16 of the magazine.

You can read the entire article online at The New York Times Magazine

I'll be interested to see if the article actually drives sales of the app.

Regardless, it's pretty cool. :-)
