Today in not quite street art: you may or may not notice a few hundred brightly colored wheel stickers slapped around Wburg and Greenpoint (and I guess the rest of the city too?). No they weren’t put there by an aspiring graffiti artist (DicKikin?) but by the internet company Kikin, in the attempt to give you an iPad. Apparently you just tweet a photo of a sticker at the company, with a #kikin.com hashtag, and you’ve entered their contest.

Their first clue to where you can find a sticker? At a Greenpoint/Williamsburg bar that “doesn’t have any matches….” GET IT?? So up and at ‘em, kids. Go be successful, own an iPad.
