For “dog people”

Some of us are cat people, and like LitterBox Cam. But I know some of you out there are dog people. For you, the place to go might be the Daily Oliver, with daily pictures of Oliver the Weimeraner. Best part of this blog: the comments from dog lovers around the world.

Comparisons with William Wegman’s photography may seem inevitable, but are not really warranted. It’s a blog, not postmodernly ironic fine art photography.

However, differences between the Daily Oliver and LitterBox Cam might reveal some differences between dog lovers and cat lovers. Dog lovers want lots of interaction with other dog lovers, so dog lover Web sites allow comments. Cat lovers are more individualistic and don’t even notice the absence of a comment feature. The cat lovers have a Web site where you can click on the Web cam image to create a small remote window that you can place in a corner of your screen, where the cats can come and go as they please while you do your work on the computer. The dog lovers have a Web site that only comes when you call it. Yes, I have pushed this far enough, so I will stop.
