It's a site of stories or poems limited to 1,024 <I>characters</I>. That is very restrictive, I know, but it's surprising what you can fit into it.<BR/><BR/>Just don't be put off by the people who seem to think that the idea is to post an enormous story split into 1,024 character chunks.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15303312993857949172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-42270399824068486212007-12-14T10:44:00.000+00:002007-12-14T10:44:00.000+00:00I am so impressed ... perhaps, one of these fine d...I am so impressed ... perhaps, one of these fine days, you'll do an audio post of a piano or violin piece played by you?
