The Fail Whale Story
Twitter “3D Fail Whale” Widget

The Fail Whale is the illustration you see above. this illustration called “Lifting A Dreamer” is part of the work of Yiying Lu, a shanghai born now gone Aussie graphic designer that originally put the illustration in iStockPhoto as a way to showcase her work and make some money and as with any good story never expected what happened next..

Next arrived in the form of Twitter that bought the rights to use the stock photo graphic at 10 dlls as the graphic to be used by twitter whenever the site would need maintenance. the graphic was chosen because of the striking match in color pattern to twitter design and of course for the birdies. it is one of those things full of serendipity like Wizard of OZ and Pink Floyd “Dark Side of The Moon” things no one can explain but get to happen.

Then came the name of Fail Whale coined in a Tweet (pure poetry right?) by Nick Quaranto in a rare “Eureka” moment.

This eye-catching wall in Mexico City is a product of cool ideas of a group of graffiti artists competing to recreate the wall of Azteca stadium into a fine masterpiece. Unbelievable how skills and imagination can change the face of something that gets overlooked into a heart-warming, as they say, a sight for sore eyes!
