Blather: A journey into the bizarre yet fascinating

[dafremen]

I just ran across a site while searching for the ever elusive word that rhymes with orange.
(Hint:to date none exists in the English language)
(Yes. I'm an eccentric individual. Read my post http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/Forum17/HTML/002443.html
for further evidence of this.)

Anyhow, this site I found is an experiment which I found both BIZARRE and FASCINATING at the same time.

It seems that the site starts with a sentence or a post by a user. Each word in the post links to posts about that word in another part of the site. Within THOSE posts are OTHER links in the form of words that people have thought to leave posts on. It's all very strange and intriguing and I would highly recommend that you check it out for yourself!

I'll give you the starting point that I started on: http://blather.newdream.net/o/oranges.html

But the entrance to the site is of course:

B l a t h e r (http://blather.newdream.net)

Take a moment, check it out, it's REALLY kind of a neat idea!

My brain Hurts

[dafremen]

I must BUMP this AGAIN!!! You don't understand! I've started blathering, and now I see why all of these people blathe so much!!

It's absolutely ADDICTING!! Pick a word, then speak your mind...be it silly or serious, revealing or concealing. Whether it hurts you to say it or if it heals you to say it. BLATHER BLATHER BLATHER. For the good of your soul, or just for the sake of argument by all means you MUST blather.

Try it...you WILL like it...I'm a blathing MANIAC now. Help me! I've fallen prey to this nefarious online experiment and you will too!

P.S. Go here: B L A T H E R (http://blather.newdream.net/)

then click on the word blather (http://blather.newdream.net/b/blather.html) or gander (http://blather.newdream.net/cgi-bin/blather?random) or recent (http://blather.newdream.net/cgi-bin/blather?recent) or who (http://blather.newdream.net/cgi-bin/blather?who) then read the posts, click on blather at the bottom to add your own. Otherwise click on any word in any post and you will go to more posts about that word, or topic. It's simply the most mind bogglingly soul purging experience online!

This is your conscience speaking...I want to blather and you haven't let me yet. Please don't force me to remind you of all of those little things that you feel so guilty about. I'd hate to have to resort to blackmail. Just take me to check out blather and maybe blather a bit. Then I'll leave you alone to all of your twisted habits. I promise. Really I'll stop nagging you all the time. I'll even keep my mouth shut when you do that one thing you do when tyou think no one's looking. You know...yea THAT ONE.

A very interesting and clever idea i must say, the layout and design of the site is a little too gloomy somehow, but the site is very interesting, i read through some of the posts and i find very interesting, ill be keeping an eye on it whenever i check on sysopt.
