I’ve been plugging away at my two new projects, which makes me sad because I so often ignore this one.  My blog has become a tweet repository.

I have just over 200 followers on Twitter now. Some of them bots or SEO hacks, but mostly genuine people who don’t see to mind me cursing, bitching and giving Office Coffee the finger. I still have to explain twitter, and the twitter connection to my facebook status, since people assume that I am on facebook all day. I’m not.  I’m blistering my thumbs on my BlackBerry all day.

My two top tweeted words? Not counting “blip” or “fm” (from blipping to tweet, which I used to do often). “Fucking” and “Internets”. Hence, the new catchphrase craze that’s sweeping the fucking internets: “Fucking Internets”. There’s a project in this.

Speaking of projects, I will discuss two of the two projects that are in the works. I will do this now.

ShatterCity: Once destined to become a local sprawl crawler, where people of the Mid-Hudson Valley could find out what the fuck is going on from there to here to there again. Well, I decided that ShatterCity wasn’t a very good name for that, cool as it sounded one morning at 3am, where many things sound much better than they really are.

ShatterCity is now going to be a literary experiment. An ongoing novel with many characters, stories and authors. Mixing and mashing their way through some very strange, dark city.  I’ve begun to invite some folk and I’m working on a bible for it. I think at the very least, it should be some fun.

SprawlCrawler: This is now the local Sprawl Crawler. See what I did? Clever, eh? It’s designed to be a local portal of things happening in the Mid-Hudson Valley, complete with a classified section, social network and all sorts of strange people sharing all sorts of strange things. I’m hoping that it winds up being mildly succesful, and that it gets used by those strange and interesting people of this region.

Oh, let me add: Fucking Internets.
