Berkman genius David Weinberger has the first entry in our Valentines Day sonnet contest. Here it is:
How do I blog thee? Let
Me count the odious ways.
As a producer of sweat
Thou compares to a summer's day.I blog thee a fool,
a villain, a back door
spammer, a stool
pigeon turned crack whore.You are so shreddible,
A vampire twice-bitten,
a journalist non-credible,
an eater of kittens.Yes, each hateful word, suspect or ratty
Does, my love, boost you at technorati.
Yikes. I hate to be a stickler (this is a lie), but this is not a sonnet. A sonnet, whether Shakespearean or Italian, has pentameter lines, not trimeter. Splitting hairs? Well, would you call the New York Times site a blog? I thought not. Harrumph.
