Because it seemed like the thing to do

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

I’ve been talking at group sites this morning: at Blogs Unlimited and over at the threads list. Some of the communications were good, some not so good. I have a great deal of empathy with chopped liver at the moment.

It’s very discouraging to be invisible, did you know that?

I also want to thank the folks interested in poetry/writing/linguistics for taking time to help me get a better grasp of the ‘business’ for the RDF/Poetry essays. I am hard at work on next entry (yo, anyone excited about this), but to be honest, just not feeling great today. And I’m going in for Red Cross volunteer disaster training later today, too. (See, something the little woman can do.)

There’s really only one photo that appealed to me from yesterday’s storm (who knows why — it’s a bizarre little photo). No poem, though. Couldn’t find one that matched:

Cloudy weather

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

Another storm rolled in tonight. And a headache rolled in with the lightning and thunder.

This storm is as impressive as the one Sunday, but so far doesn’t have the moisture. The continuous lightening and thunder can get tiring after a bit. Either that or I’m not in a mood to enjoy the storm tonight.

I think I caught Liz’s Hoppy Toad mood.

Update:Well, my hoppy toad mood may be explained by finding that I did not escape unscathed from the ticks this weekend. I found a large red rash on my ankle tonight, and a new friend having a good nosh in the middle of it.

Sigh, I really, really like Missouri. But it’s a bit of a trial at times.

Back to RDF Poetry Finder (Allegory Finder?) but it will be a day or two for next posting. However, interesting ideas being presented in the comments, and times like this I’m happy for comments. And others are continuing the linguistic discussion, which is also enjoyable.

There are a lot of smart people here abouts.

More storms, other stuff

Well, enough of the dabbling among the mix of art and technology. More storms coming in, another alert, but it doesn’t look like much. Thanks to the Internet, we can all be meteorologists pretending we know how to read the weather maps.

I’ll see if I can get any more weather photos, but you know, you can only take so many pics of clouds, and they all start looking alike. Like Volkswagons.

I have another trip across the country to plan. This time I’m taking the van and camping along the way rather than staying in motels. Always room for an adventure.

Semantics Web

What’s it all about, Alfie?

Recovered from the Wayback Machine.

A discussion about the Semantic Web is taking place at Bloggers Unlimited. My hope is that this conversation brings together the techies and the non-techies, and it seems like it is. At least a little bit.

More voices would be welcome — all views are welcome. This is a friendly thread. Honest.

As for my part, I’m talking at the discussion thread, and I’m continuing the RDF Poetry Finder essays. We’ll see how it goes.
