"Welcome to the New Deja Vu"

said Max's status in Google Wave
beta
I've just slipped in,
to experiment with
the future of communication
the cessation of duplication
designed by a benevolent corporation
unless we're all mistaken.

Only time will tell
Though time tells less when it's not adjacent to other time
Time in isolation
Only tells us what we're told
Without the old beside the new
The new may design a falser 'true.'

Thus I walk the shore of the Google Wave
waiting for the next tide to arrive.
Sensing the sizzling excitement of innovation
That reeks of the smoky remains of
last year's new sensation.

The stench of which is still in our clothes
Like a smokey night out at a hotpot restaurant.

Nothing New Under the Sun

"Nothing New Under the Sun"
Jonathan Chambers

Inspired by 8th Graders

The longer I live
The more that I'm bitten
The less I shall write
For all has been written

New music I hear
That I've heard before
There's nothing of interest
The world is a bore

These jokes are all stale
This humor is tired
There's nothing to smirk at
I have no desire

And so I'll continue
To numbly forget
My own lack of originality
Created this mindset.

Blips not Blogs

Parallel Insight

Thanks for dropping by, but most of my blogging is not actually happening here these days.  VirtualJonathan is (more or less) a directory of the places where you can find me, so dig into the links in the right-hand column, and chances are you'll find some some sort of digital imprint that I've left in the past day or two.  Thanks for trying ;-)

Where Am I Now?

J-Scape reconfigured

Most of my current blogging is located at my newest blog: The Articulator.
In case you're wondering, I'm back in Shanghai and loving it!
