The Revolution will not be blogged has been blogged

Ripped Shamelessly and with pride from Pharoah Asheseti's MySpace Blog

The Revolution will not be Blogged

You will not be able to read it at home, brother.
You will not be able to log on, log in and syndicate your feed.
You will not be able to lose hours in MetaFilter and Kuro5hin,
Click on text ads for naked punk girls with online diaries,
Because the revolution will not be blogged.

The revolution will not be blogged.
The revolution will not be hosted on Blogspot or Pitas.
It will certainly not be hosted on Salon or Backwash.
The revolution will not show you digicam pics of people
You've never met before in pubs or bars looking like they've
Just stepped out of Nerd Central Station and
Eaten a few too many Ring Dings.
The revolution will not be blogged.

The revolution will not win a goddamn Web award
From the Bloggies or Webmonkey or be linked to by A-list
Bloggers like Meg Pickard or Wil "Crazy Hair" Wheaton.
The revolution will not be turned into a comedy novel.
The revolution will not comply with HTML 4.01.
The revolution will not be updated regularly in easily
Digestible chunks, because the revolution will not be blogged, brother.

There will be no half-baked diatribe about the plans
You and your lover have for the weekend or that thing
You saw on television the other day but missed half of because Nancy rang.
The Guardian will not run a special on you
Or be able to spell your name.
The revolution will not be blogged.

There will not be any little graphics from "alternative" websites
Declaring you to be Syphilis or Charlie Manson.
There will not be any little graphics from "alternative" websites
Declaring you to be a Native American Chief made of butter.
There will be no custom scripts allowing you and your friends
To talk banalities in the sidebar of your site.
There will be no webcam pics of you posing just like Madonna
So that the rich nerd perverts who visit your page can buy you things
From your Amazon wishlist.

Memepool, Daypop, Blogdex, B3ta and Fark
Will no longer be so goddamn relevant or funny, and
Women will not give a shit if Brad and Jennifer are having
a happy marriage or if Tom Cruise is a homosexual because
The good people of the world will be in the street looking for peace.
The revolution will not be blogged.

There will be nobody having nervous breakdowns while
Putting together Web applications for updating your page
Or links to pages with many hamsters dancing in unison.
The revolution will not be an all-pervasive medium for
The transmission of ideas in a timely manner on a global scale.
The revolution will not display correctly in Mozilla.

The revolution will not have banners or popups or popunders
Or those irritating graphics that take over your whole screen.
You will not have to worry about having the latest Macromedia
Flash, Macromedia Shockwave or Macromedia Goddamn plugin.
The revolution will not work at all in Opera.
The revolution will not secretly hope for a deal with Microsoft.
The revolution will not be skinnable.

The revolution will not be blogged, will not be blogged,
Will not be blogged, will not be blogged.
The revolution will be no Web diary, brothers;
The revolution will be televised.

LiveScience.com - Beyond the Geeks: 60 Million Americans Labeled 'Intellectually Curious'


Goodbye Bi-Sexual, hello Bi-Intellectual. The new trendy lifestyle

Random idea

What would it mean if there was a day when no one was born or died. Why would that day be important. why would non one begin or end then?

Drunken Ramble (to the tune of bueno sera by Louis Prima)

So, the world is converging into a global entity. This much we can agree on right?
No? will okay then you go now. The rest of you stay for what surely is the new world order.
The more we access our databases, our computers, our pda's etc., etc. We undergo a change.
This change pits us againt extroveriotn and introvertion. While we are able to access the far reaches of the globe,
we are doing so in more private spaces. Our information sources are connecting in ways never seen before.
Soon one thought leading to the next will lead to all the others in the same moment. What do we do then though?
When we have the mass of information, total and complete at our fingertips. Do we remember it, use it, trash it, what?
Right now, we flash feel. A moment comes up and we think about it but as the saturation of info dies down so does our interest.
I hope that soon we wake up. We wake up to this new revolution. Every piece of news and information at our whim. We can know.
what is happeneing anywhere and anytime. We can act, learn and do. What harms what when everyone knows the whole story?
