Oh good! Somebody fixed my Blog. I was wondering if it would fix itself. Thanks whoever fixed my Blog!! Me and Zooli read Cluetrain Manifesto and I think somebody at Motime read it, too, 'cause everything is fixed now and nobody had to fight about anything or rob from poor people. Zooli likes #95:
"We are waking up and linking to each other. We are watching. But we are not waiting."
Today, I think I'll go visit the Wizard. I'll show you a picture later. The Wizard blogs.
Love,
JoyBoy and Zooli

This is pretty good. I think I'm liking a lot of the people I see. Wow! Whadda world this Blogosphere is. There are so many people here! Zooli thought he would get lost. Somebody asked, "Is JoyBoy really 10?" JoyBoy said, "of course! Of course I'm 10. 10 in Teddy Bear years. You know what *that* means." So some people are talking to us now, but mainly they talk to each other and ignore all of us. Zooli thinks they might still be scared of us, like that Jellyfish guy, but I don't know about that.

I'll tell you about them later. I don't feel like telling you about them now. Or you can look them up in the blogtionary.
"If we are the creators of the machine and the machine has emergent properties different from us, are we still the soul of the machine?"
JoyBoy hollered back, "Come onto the magic carpet with me and Angela and Charlie and Zooli and I'll show you. . ."
But the Jellyfish didn't answer. He just kept talking - it was like he was typing on his computer only you couldn't see the computer and he was typing in his head and the words were all coming out of his ears and floating in the blue Jellyfish blobby stuff around him. Words like, "ontological," and "teleos," and "parallel processing neuronets."
"If this is the soul of the machine, then *this* is humanity," the Jellyfish bellowed. Too loud and blub, blub, blub, if you ask me.
Zooli said meekly, "Why is that man wearing watercolors?"
And sure enough he was. It was as if the words had color when they were created. "Ontological" was yellow. "Teleos" a dark purple. "Humanity" was a pale yellow. "Soul" was very blue, for example. I wondered what the colors meant. If the Blogosphere had certain rules and those rules were influenced by color, even.
"'C'mon, Zooli, let's go find somebody else. There must be somebody who will talk to us!"
This is what me and Zooli said:
"Who's there?" said JoyBoy.
"Roar!" said Zooli.
Zooli actually said that, he didn't make the sound, he said "Roar!" It's not like Zooli was afraid or anything. He doesn't get afraid. He just roars 'cause he's a baby lion. That's what they do. Roar. Or well, it was a mini-roar. That's what it was. He's small, about four inches, so he roars small.
So Zooli roars, but he doesn't stink. Even tho' he's a lion he doesn't stink. And when we went to somebody's blog, and they were just standing there in the middle of it that's what we said. And when I said "Who's there?" nobody answered, even tho' they were in their own blog. So I said it again, "Who's there blogging, that's what I want to know! 'Cause I'm JoyBoy!"

Well, out I went a-blogging, a-blogging, a-blogging.
Out I went a-blogging
and what did I find?
(no longer singing)
About a million people rambling, is what! I like the people. Well, I don't know the people, but I like the titles. These are the questions I have:
What is the blogosphere?
Do you enter into it by lurking?
Does lurking count as participation?
Do you enter it by blogging and posting?
Do you enter it only when you interact with somebody?
Does entering it make you meet somebody?
These are the questions I have.
