Hoffspace

[baleanoptera]

The net is a beautiful thing. It brings people together. It presents us with such wonderful opportunities.

First of, the House of Lords are blogging: Lords of the Blog They should get some sort of prize for the name at least.

Secondly David Hasslehoff has created Hoffspace (also a prize for that name I think.), which is nothing less than David Hasslehoff's Social Network. He hopes it will rival Facebook. I quote The Hoff himself:

I realized that while two people from two entirely different countries and backgrounds may seem to have nothing in common, the only thing they might have in common is me... So I decided to start a network where people from across the world might come together and get a conversation started over me

This was, with out a doubt, my week's moment of Zen.

AHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA HOFFSPACE.

I know you have an account already!

Hoffspace should, on name alone, receive some form of immortality. And more fool me who thought The Hoff's claim that he brought down the Berlin Wall was his only claim to world dominion. More fool me indeed.

And I do not have an account. Does this sadden you?

I just laughed so hard over that quote. Thanks for that. Oh, Hoff.

Hee. The quote is a thing of utter beauty, and it lends extra gravity to the old proverb "Don't hassle the Hoff".

Lords of the Blog is an AWESOME name. But they need to make themselves user icons. Perhaps we should hold an icontest for them?

Points for lofty ambition there :D

Lords of the Blog definitely need to revamp their site some. Then again they have discovered alliteration, and are now sporting regular features such as "Wit of Westminster". This leads me to think there is hope.

You have heard the story of how he claimed he brought down the Berlin Wall right? 'Cause he sang his world hit (etc.etc.) "I've been looking for Freedom" near the Brandenburger Tor. 'tis true. He-he.

Ah, that's how it happened. Then I take it back - this is a surprisingly modest endeavor!

Isn't it just? The best part is that he made the Berlin Wall statement while visiting the Berlin Wall museum in Berlin. The curator guiding him should get mad bonus points for handling the incident with the utmost democratic discretion. Hee.
