One of my favorite Tumblr sites is in the NYT today

Garfield Minus Garfield is one of my personal favorite tumblelog’s. It’s so creative and really funny.

Dan Walsh, who is the creator of this site, takes out the Garfield character and what is left is a stroke of genius.

The NYT has an article today on the site which is getting about 30-35k visitors a day.

Even better, Jim Davis created the comic strip “Garfield” isn’t upset about this site:

Jim Davis, the cartoonist who created “Garfield,” calls himself an occasional reader of the site, which he calls “fascinating.” He says he is flattered rather than peeved by the imitation.

More content creators should figure out how to let their fans mash up and create new things.
