The Onion on Vanity Websites

| No Comments | No TrackBacks

Students in my "Writing for the Internet" class were asked to create an "About Me" page for their blogs. Here's a recycled article from a couple years ago, spoofing the "vanity homepage" concept (which predated the blog craze).

The Onion | Barryploegel.com Will Never Be Accused Of Having Too Little Information About Barry Ploegel

Well, it's been a long, grueling weekend of HTML coding, but at long last, www.barryploegel.com is finally ready for its auspicious launch. In a scant matter of hours, Barry Ploegel will no longer be solely a carbon-based, off-line property. That's right: Barry Ploegel is poised to take the leap into cyberspace!

What I really like about this is that there really is a www.barryploegel.com website.
