I was discussing with a friend the implication of digital pogs as a wider internet phenomenon...
a pog battle program could take Michael's basic pog-collection HTML structure, and pit two websites full of collections together (it would parse the tables, etc.). if a given website doesn't follow his website structure, the program could scrape other images on the page, i.e. you could host Michael Bell-Smith's collection vs. CNN.com; maybe the waving hair pog would lose to an infographic-about-america's-obesity pog
as for the spoils of winning, maybe the program that could turn lost pogs into 256 colors, or maybe INVERT them
