Seattle Notables For Stalking Nobodies

Wired points us to a Gawker-Stalker type site called Seattle Notables that’s based in Seattle. Where the former maps the spottings of famous people by regular New Yorkers, the latter maps spottings of not-so-regular people by regular Seattle residents. It’s not exactly a frequently updated site but it’s a reminder about this theme of personal celebrity.

“We don’t have many celebrities here,” says McLeod, co-owner of Seattle’s McLeod Residence art gallery.

The site follows characters like Slats, the Duct Tape Guy and The Button Wearing Bus Expert. And ok, they do also follow Seattle’s solo celeb, Bill Gates. The site says:

We are celebrating the notables of Seattle – the people that fill our local stories with heroes, scapegoats, nemeses, and friends. This is an experiment put on by McLeod Residence.
