Cine este poetul web 2.0 de la televizor?

Dupa ce l-am vazut la televizor si pe atatea afise, am vrut sa aflam mai multe despre acest tip absolut cuceritor care ne-a starnit curiozitatea.
Iata cum se prezinta el...

I am strangers in the cafe where I stood up for my first webcast and strangers in the forums who first stood up for me
I am fan mail from a North-Sea Oil rig worker and chatroom chatter from Gibraltar
I am video love poems the stroke of midnight to my girlfriend as she wakes up half a globe away
I am blog updates with some new found friends in the sunshine of the city plaza
I am the boy with the book on the bank of a river whose picture I took and then e-mailed to my mother because he looked like my brother
I am the downloads I do uptown and the uploads I do downtown
I am Rives, the first 2.0 poet and thanks to everyone, I’m inspired wherever I go
