It’s only now, after three weeks since the mockoblog was launched, that I realize how intricate the internet matrix is: perhaps we could call it an n-dimensional maze. Thus, I can easily dye my hair white and call myself an improoved lab rat.
This is already history: on the 24th of May Anno Domini MMIX the mockoblog was launched as Angle Blog, living through a link under an old New Zealand-based website. It is funny how concepts evolve independent of their author’s destiny and how they eventually find their own niche in the universe of ideas. The only problem with the mockoblog was/were actually three: a) there were no ideas around this concept; b) the concept was surrounded by no ideas at all; c) concepts normally have no space or time to be linked to and if they get some, they won’t surrender any inch or minute of it to some impatient idea.
Confusing enough?
As the concept was growing out of proportions and the fundamental wealth of ideas remained pretty poor, we had to create a whole universe around the mockoblog. I hate it, but normally people or robots or both need something that they can touch, take to their mouth, smell, taste, ingest, try to sell on, digest and excrete. If most of there bodily functions are not available, the subject will end up trying to create stuff out of a concept and this is the ultimate offence to God.
We (by “we” I mean the whole load of brains, money and money without brains behind this enterprise) have decided to cut it short and gamble the maximum bid allowed: we bought the mockoblog.com domain!
We’ve got the job done due to our sleepless nights but a tremendous contribution came from our shadow investors and thanks to the even harder to locate Alien Who Helps Us! There have been attempts to slow down our expansion, even to shut us down.
The truth hurts. Yet telling the truth often kills.
During this struggle between the dark and the less dark forces, strange events/signs happened: Hillary Clinton (in an apparently unrelated incident) broke her wrist, World champions Italy lost to Egypt in total disregard to the likes of Cleopatra and Mark Anthony’s hasted end, and I don’t even mention the ongoing Iranian protests against their beloved President (after apparently perfect elections which only lacked the vote count).
But let us forget this world of conspiracy for a moment! Your mates and foes alike can still find us at the old URL if they so please.
I know it’s boring. Soon I’ll tell you how I won those few million on lotto.
In conclusion: our address is www.mockoblog.com. We’ll keep these old and fragile links open for a few days, roughly until Google wakes up again, performs a circle of check-ups and finds our true and newly baptized site. I sort of expect you to have not bookmarked www.mockoblog.com and to not send this link to your best mates and ex partners That’s if you are part of the $$$ internet matrix as well. In that case, thanks for not being here to read this.
