Thanks to my ability to activate my online social network in January, I became the first Superfan for The Needs of the Few, a great local blog published by Evil Spock (and friends). As my reward, I get to take over his blog for a day and post whatever I want. April Fool’s Day turns out to be when I get to flex my superpower.
I’m going with a layered theme. First, I’m posting once an hour to maximize my content there. That’s a lot of text—a total of 16 pages as Word document, or 7,429 words in 144 paragraphs. I should do so well on my “barriers to entry” research paper on online forums. What better inspiration for a 24-hour posting binge than the television show, 24. Second, I picked a starting point in Wikipedia and surfed back to the same spot in 24 steps, “midnight” to “midnight.” Not as easy as it sounds. Throw in a premise of Evil Spock being on the lam, and we’ve got ourselves a major guest blogging spot.
Enjoy.
