Illegal Aliens

Sometimes the really cool stuff on the web is hidden in plain sight. Take space-invaders.com.
A masked Parisian artist has taken his love for classic gaming aesthetics into the streets with a series of Space Invaders-themed mosaics. He's been plastering up his pixellated graffiti since 1998, and has attracted a few copycats who have invaded their own towns. Of particular interest may be the maps he provides to many of his pieces, if you happen to find yourself in Paris, Tokyo, New York, or one of the other cities bombed by the aliens. If you're like me, however, you'll just have to use the requisite photo archives.
Be warned that the site runs a little slow on the Western side of the Atlantic.
