During this time, the webtoy was ported to various unusual devices via the resources on github, more jokes and art were made about the balls and a feed was created that showed any post with the hashtag #googleballs or any googleball adjacent phrase.

it lacks what the original r/place had with the timer. after a few days, kids who grew up with "fandom" in-groups start to get a weird Us vs Them mentality and take it too seriously
it's a neat little webtoy, not an important piece of internet history that needs your fandom's legacy to be preserved

yknow, I completely forgot about that global-state game of life simulation I wrote a year back (kokoscript.com/webtoy/conwa...)
somehow its had 0 downtime, which is impressive for how awkwardly-engineered it is. I should do a small writeup on that at some point

Someone's built a fun webtoy which makes music based on the patterns of live traffic on California's Highway 101. Just IMAGINE the beautiful cacophony the M25 would make - if someone could build a London version that would be ace, thanks: the-101-plays-itself.netlify.app
The 101 Plays Itself
A live traffic camera on the US-101 in Studio City, playing itself as music in your browser. Every car that crosses the line is a note.
