my new handheld

I bought an electronic piece of technlogy that I (as an English teacher) could use on the go and I called it my mobile literary device

it has access to hyperbolinks -- y'know..the BEST WEBSITES EVER

and similinks...sites that are like (or as) other sites

addresses like www.littlelively.com full of URLiteration and even websites that bring up errors like ErrorMeta404 which compare directly to other sites which don't exist.

berry berry good

So I'm blogging from my berry (a phrase destined to be understood as a particularly nasty euphemism within the next five years) and I'd have to say that this whole technology thing might actually catch on. Now when a cop pulls me over I can tell him that I wasn't using my phone, I was pricing out Viagra or updating my status.

The names of the various sites are also being exploited. The wife and some friends were messing with Sitonmyfacebook, but I am thinking more outside of the blogs. My initial thought - someone who is too interested in collaborative writing to be in a relationship -- a "wikisexual" already shows 122 hits on a search.

But what about social networking for religious people with lisps? Faithbook anyone?

Or a place where a rodent can post his info? Micespace...

I want a site where children can catalogue words that start with a particular letter (like Where's Waldo for linguists) - we can start with "Seeanay" and work all the way down to "seeanen"

Say it out loud...I'll wait.

Is there a site with want ads and forums for musicians? Like a franzliszt.com?

Play at home and post your own worst site ideas and rip off names. Record how nuch dough you shelled out to Apple on ipaid and then explore your S+M side on sites like Flogger and Flogspot.
