Katie Sokoler recently turned the streets of Greenpoint, Brooklyn into a giant Pac-Man game. More photos on her site.
Some German pranksters recently modified a bunch of street level advertisements in Berlin and Hamburg by adding some nose picking.
Vanity Point is a new project by street artist Contra in the UK. He writes:

For the train spotter who likes to work in style, this decorative art/love seat installation was seen in the Georgetown neighborhood of Seattle.
A mysterious street artist named TrustoCorp has placed street signs around Brooklyn, with messages ranging from silly to sophomoric. TrustoCorp also took his or her show on the road recently, posting signs around Los Angeles and Miami. A gallery of the signs can be viewed on TrustoCorp’s flickr page.

Ron English and his crew found a new canvas for street art in south Texas, cows!

I snapped the above photo in downtown Manhattan a month or so ago. There were several stone rectangles around the property that all looked similar.

If you were a video game geek in the early 1990’s, this is probably up your alley. A quartet of street artists named Mr. Talion, Epoxy, Baveaux, and Kone have added the heads-up display from the first-person shooter computer game DOOM to a number of billboards throughout Berlin. You can see more here.
