An Experiment in Collaborative Authorship: #rhymetag

datePosted on 22:31, March 12th, 2009 by EKSwitaj

Read my latest story, "A Tale of Two Birthdays", at 52|250.

#rhymetag will be the hashtag for a new experiment and game on Twitter that, should it catch on, will create a collaborative ever-changing poem. Here is how you can participate:

  1. Write a tweet that includes the #rhymetag hashtag; it can be about anything or can be gibberish.
  2. If you see a tweet that includes #rhymetag, reply to it with a rhyming tweet. Make sure that this contains #rhymetag.
  3. Search for #rhymetag in order to read the poem that results. It will, of course be different every time.
  4. Break the rules. Do something entirely different. Only thus will the project evolve.
