make them links! clickable! :) (you know that infinity-type blue icon when you are composing? select the text you want to be a link, and then click that, and it pops up a box where you can type in the desired web address)

When I wrote "Should poetry be open source?" I had no idea someone had already started an open source poetry site. Cool! (Speaking of links, though, I'm a little annoyed that the entries on that site don't seem to have permalinks. Kind of makes them disposable.) Unlike Mr. Wilde, I take comfort in the realization that I have never had a truly original idea. I am really tired of the romantic myth of the author or artist as lone genius.
