Naked conversations

The big story is not about blogging. It’s not about Twitter, YouTube, Facebook, Friendfeed or whatever.

It is about..

Cheap. Easy. Global. Media.

CheapEasyGlobal is the big story.

Caffeinated poem

Caffeinated poem: A few weeks ago I had compiled a set of poems to submit to various poetry contests including Boston Review. But I was reading Robert Pinsky’s book Gulf Music and never sent them. It’s not that I forgot to send them. It is just that compared to Robert Pinsky, my poems appear un-submittable. So instead I wrote a poem on a paper cup after drinking a latte from The Dripolator.

Day in the Life of Asheville

I’m surprised that one of the photos I submitted to the DITLO project was chosen as the jugde’s pick. The Day in the Life of Asheville photo project took place between 12:00 noon April 18 through midnight April 19 in Asheville, NC city limits.
