Yes, you read that correctly. There is a source
entitled Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog:
Medieval Studies and New Media. Written by Brantley L. Bryant and published
in 2010, Medieval Studies and New Media examines
the cultural phenomena “Geoffrey Chaucer Hath a Blog” as well as the
implications for resurgent medievalism in popular culture. The source also
includes various essays on the origin and growth of the blog.
I understand that this source may not be of use
to us in our research processes. However, it is too entertaining not to bring up (whether on the blog or
in class). The blog has been moved onto Twitter, so in lieu of excerpts from
the blog, here are some tweets:
- Science kan teche yow to freeze folk yn carbonyte. The humanityes kan teche yow that the best answer to 'Ich love thee' ys 'Ich knowe.'
- Putte a fowel vpon yt
- Nat all those who wandir are lost. Except for me. Ich am definitlye lost. Ich have passid that donut shoppe lyke ten tymes nowe. Helpe!
And, my personal favorites:
- Ich am a litel teapotte, short and stout. My deedes are known yn all landes, and Ich have servid many kynges. Unbreakable my word and sword.
- My home netwerke ys yclept 'The Wifi of Bath'
