Real Stuff

I wanted to point out to you an effort that Marius Coomans is undertaking and chronicling at Renaissance Web:

I am about to implement weblogs in a corporate environment and I
thought it might be interested to track implementation and
progress “live” to this list. I hope this will be a two way effort
with comments and suggestions from the list and information about the
implementation which is of interest to the list. Any (politely
worded) suggestions/feedback will be very welcome. I expect to focus
on the human side of implementation, but expect to cover technical
successes and failures as well.

Anyone who is interested in social software, and incorporation of weblog technology within the work place will most likely want to follow along with Marius — I for one appreciate him sharing his experience.

This will also add some ‘meat’ to the discussions at the site, which have, unfortunately, been centered around my half-baked idea of the RDF Poetry Finder.

Mirror

I am silver and exact. I have no preconceptions.
Whatever I see I swallow immediately
Just as it is, unmisted by love or dislike.
I am not cruel, only truthful —
The eye of a little god, four-cornered.
Most of the time I meditate on the opposite wall.
It is pink, with speckles. I have looked at it so long
I think it is part of my heart. But it flickers.
Faces and darkness separate us over and over.

Now I am a lake. A woman bends over me,
Searching my reaches for what she really is.
Then she turns to those liars, the candles or the moon.
I see her back, and reflect it faithfully.
She rewards me with tears and an agitation of hands.
I am important to her. She comes and goes.
Each morning it is her face that replaces the darkness.
In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman
Rises toward her day after day, like a terrible fish.

Sylvia Plath, “Mirror”
