When I saw a version of this image, in blue and green colored lights (and with a strategically placed “censored” sign—image may not be entirely safe for work), on a billboard at night in lower Manhattan, I thought it was about the coolest ad I’d ever seen.
When a bunch of them turn up in random locations in Boston, it practically shuts the city down.
UPDATE 2/1: Link fixed; Gothamist cites media reports that randomly placed LED devices bearing that image also removed from various New York locations.
what image? your link's broken.
Jon, the link to the image goes nowhere, at least on my browser. Says something about "local host."

But on this blog he promises ample helpings of scoop, provocation, sharp analysis and (we hope) wit as he tracks and annotates this constantly changing terrain.
