Web Laureate Insight, "Zivity: a positive proclivity for exciting activity"

Today’s Web Laureate Classic Insight into last Saturday’s poem…

Zivity: a positive proclivity for exciting activity

timely

in light of recent events, perhaps this less so describes the website of my affection, but more so apple’s latest gadget — now it is the ipad — and should you read this in the future, substitute the ipad for whatever the latest happens to be

exciting

written to move at a quickening pace, leaving its reader nearly breathless in speech, further emphasizing each line of new words more ardently, to capture the sentiment and sensuality that was and seems to still be zivity

Web Laureate Classic: "Zivity: a positive proclivity for exciting activity"

I open my eyes,
And slowly,
Slowly,
Slowly…

Pressing now,
First gently,
Very gently,
But…now, suddenly,
Quicker…

Hands and,
Eyes darting,
All about,
Trying,
Trying to,
Keep pace…

Sensual,
Images,
Zipping,
So fast,
The forms,
Beautiful,
And especially…
The sets.

Web Laureate Insight, "Microsoft: Bye Bye Bill"

Today’s Web Laureate Classic Insight into last Friday’s poem…

Microsoft: Bye Bye Bill

changes

come and go. frustrations ebb and flow.

in a time (right now) when it appears that new vigor may be emerging deep in the belly of microsoft, windows mobile 7 and project natal, perhaps the precursors, it is most fascinating, and perhaps even timely, to now look back to 2008, when frustrations and new revelations were all around.

when the "I’m a mac; I’m a pc" ads were most ‘in’ and the ‘thing,’ it was not too long ago that the news all abuzz the departure of bill gates it was. and out if it all came something most…

(are) fascinating.

not only have from noobs to gurus through the years been perplexed, complained, screamed, as they abandoned microsoft for the ‘apple train,’ but so too it was found that mr. gates, and was so revealed, a ‘new side,’ one shared with each and all, of frustration with the seemingly immovable heft that microsoft has/had become

Web Laureate Classic: "Microsoft: Bye Bye Bill"

Recently, we have seen a new side,
One which we did not know was inside.
For years we screamed and complained,
Felt ignored, and many joined the Apple train.
The products just kept getting bigger,
Demanding more from us, and each computer.
There was a lot of blame going around,
Whose fault was it for losing this ground,
Bill and Microsoft said to be evil,
With size and heft huge, unmovable.
At least now we know, perhaps a small consolation,
That even you Bill, by Microsoft, was filled with frustration.

Web Laureate Insight, "Brightkite: All By Myself"

Today’s Web Laureate Classic Insight into last Thursday’s poem…

Brightkite: All By Myself

2008 — around

a couple of years ago brightkite was the hot location application in a pre-location app addicted world. a reflection into what was from a company that may soon be unifying them all, recently announced at sxsw soon, by way of check.in. so with none around, a poem more lonely and melancholy was sought …

before none

and before the addiction was at it is, it was often felt by many, maybe even myself — for I cannot remember my precise sentiment beyond my initial en-typing of this work, that location-oriented apps were interesting, yet lacked any real purpose in a standalone, strangely disconnected setting… it is in this setting that I found myself and few others, and by few I mean FEW for there was almost no one there where I went and went to look

Web Laureate Classic: "Brightkite: All By Myself"

All by myself
I am sitting here
No one to see
Less seen to do

Perhaps poorly chosen
My location of here
Seeming much less
That most over there

With too few around
And those too far away
I shall be here exploring
Alone, with none others, today

Web Laureate Insight, "comotivate"

Today’s Web Laureate Classic Insight into last Thursday’s poem…

comotivate

together

comotivate leverages the power of groups to help you accomplish your goals

again

this poem is written to be read two ways. first, down each column; then in the same spirit with the same sentiment of comotivate with the two columns together accomplishing the same goal of a poem – whole — from left to right, two columns together, one row at a time

Web Laureate Insight, "Threnody of Netscape"

Today’s Web Laureate Classic Insight into last Fridays poem…

Threnody of Netscape

Dum-Dum

it may be easy to forget, but it was not too long ago that the end of one of the pioneering web browsers, netscape, came to fruition. its life, marked, on this dirge, as would be marked on its tombstone — Oct. 13, 1994 to Feb. 1, 2008. the decision to shut down made by america online — after letting it atrophy.

Da-Dum

written as a dirge, with matching meter and rhyme to many other popular, to be read slowly, capturing the melancholy felt by many at the time, and repeated — yet hopefully not repeated

Web Laureate Classic: "Threnody of Netscape"

I used Netscape,
It was good and it was great.

They A. Online,
Did not see the good in time.

We everyone,
Do know there are more to – come.
