Twittering the Classics
I don't know about you, but I have been underwhelmed by Twitter as a vehicle for political coverage. Just because everybody's doing it doesn't mean it's a good idea. Does "twittering" sound like serious reportage to you?
Twittered literature, however--now there's an idea with legs. Call it twitlit. Maud Newton notes that, so far, we have twittered versions of Moby-Dick, Paradise Lost, and William Blake. Others?
