Interesting Webby links
Each year I go through the winners of the Webby Awards (the internet’s answer to the Academy Awards) looking for interesting websites I’ve never heard of. This year I found two links of relevance to this blog’s readers: one directly and one indirectly.
Poet Kwame Dawes’s work on people living in Jamaica with HIV. The only criticism I have of this is that the poetry (recorded audio on the site as well as scrolling text) and the photos are individually so strong and interesting that they are sometimes just too much together. I suggest you close your eyes and listen to the poetry and then view the images afterwards.
And this is something just plain fun: choose a blog and see words magically arrange themselves into a cool clouds, such as my wordle for traversepoetry.org
