Surfing the links

Does it make any sense that you "surf" the web? Has anyone seen any spiders with Malibus saying "Surfs up, dude?"

Anyway, some interesting pieces from around the traps:

1. Tom Paine of Silent Running is preparing for a terror simulation involving bloggers called Simterror '05. There's a Yahoo group set-up and the exercise begins early January. It has great potential and is an interesting new blogging project. Can role-playing games involving blogs be far behind?

2. Ilyka gives of herself to explain herself.

3. Jim has re-established his creative writing blog Protomonkey. He's extended it into a group blog for creative writing and already Paul has joined, as has RP and Michele. If Jim will have me I've offered as well - I'd like to get back to doing some more creative writing.

Protomonkey's back? Awesome. Always makes me wish I had a creative bone in my body. But at least I can enjoy the efforts of those who do.

I think the term surfing came about as a reflection of the way you can semi-randomly come and go as you hit links and the back button.

It's kind of like catching a wave, you never know exactly where it will take you or how long the ride will be.
