About

Shey.net is the personal weblog of Timothy Shey, sharing art and Internet culture since 1998.

I'm a designer, producer and startup founder based in New York, and currently work as director of the YouTube Next Lab.

Some of the popular web series and networks I've had a hand in helping include ThreadBanger, Indy Mogul, Barely Political (and the Obama Girl videos), Auto-Tune the News, The Key of Awesome, $99 Music Videos, Epic Fu, Channel Frederator, and Fast Lane Daily.

Got a question? Ask me anything.

* I'm working on getting the '98-'03 archives back up, and '04-'07 is here.

“Prince Pickles is our image character because he’s very endearing, which is what Japan’s military stands for,” said Shotaro Yanagi, a Defense Agency official. “He’s our mascot and appears in our pamphlets and stationery.” (via Cuddly characters front Japan’s military aspirations - International Herald Tribune)
