A while back I heard Paul Boag talk about how websites should have persona’s while you design them. Although I don’t think is exactly what he had in mind, but I thought it made for a fun idea for a post. What I did was visit some of my favorite websites and pick out people that seemed as if they were real life incarnations of the website themselves.
What do you think?

The best beside the obvious Jesus/Google is Andy Sowards as Zoro…So funny.
August 5, 2009 9:48 am
His person is actually the main character from the movie “The Spirit” because his website used to be just like the movie poster.
August 5, 2009 8:50 am
Cool post!
August 5, 2009 9:12 am
I’d see Google as less of Jesus and more of “Big Brother”
August 5, 2009 9:23 am
Ha! This is so good and Outlaw Design Blog is most definitely The Duke.
August 5, 2009 9:34 am
LOL! What an awesome idea and an even better post! Awesome job!
August 5, 2009 9:37 am
HAHAHA This is a great post dude! Well done! I laughed all the way through!

Keep up the good work Danny!

@Andy: I may be mistaken, but I believe that is “The Spirit” from the latest Frank Miller film.
Great post, loved the Braveheart one.
August 5, 2009 9:46 am
Hah! That’s so awesome. I think your site and google are PERFECT.
August 5, 2009 9:57 am
Best thing I’ve seen for ages.
August 5, 2009 10:01 am
If you mean that google is a source of mythical information that confuses and misleads its conditioned masses, then yes, geezuz.
August 5, 2009 11:07 am

Jesus = Google is brilliant!
Thanks for this post – I love the comparisons.
August 5, 2009 10:05 am
Google is most certainly NOT Jesus. Bad, bad bad. Google is the devil.
Other than that rather glaring mistake, cool list.
August 5, 2009 10:19 am
I can’t help but to be impressed by the connections of the personalities of these famous icons along the side of the actual website…
