#ATL333: A collaborative Time & Place project with you, dear readers

Take a photo of Atlanta on 3/3 at 3:33 as part of CL’s Neighborhood Guide

We were doing some brainstorming, like we do, for our annual Neighborhood Guide issue, and we decided we wanted some sort of social media/crowdsourcing involvement with you, sweet sweet readers. So this was our idea: This Saturday, on March 3 (3/3), all over Atlanta, our readers will take a picture at 3:33 pm of whatever they’re doing at that moment. An attempt to paint a mosaic of the city, as it were.

And that’s all you have to do. The deets are here on our Facebook event page, where we’d love you to sign up if you plan on participating. We just put it up yesterday and we’ve already got a hundred folks saying they’ll participate, so we’re pretty jazzed about the photos we might get. (Hey, giggling frat guy, no, we don’t want your filth. Not at that address, anyway. Contact me privately.) As it says, all you have to do is then email the photo to photos@creativeloafing.com, or hashtag it on Twitter or Instagram as #ATL333, and we’ll find it. We’ll even publish the best ones in the dead-tree version of the paper.

Don’t worry, we’ll remind you about it all week, because if you’re like us, you need that, you slacker.
