The Story Verse

Semantic web / Little Demons and the “StoryVerse”

• Take, for example, Las Vegas. The book that instantly springs to mind,

“Fear and Loathing…” But the city has been featured in hundreds of titles from Don DeLillo’s “Underworld” , David Foster Wallace’s “Infinite Jest” to Chuck Klosterman’s “Sex, Drugs, And Cocoa Puffs” & David Carr’s “The Night of the Gun”.

• Valla Vakili thinks it interesting that Cocoa Puffs connected Klosterman to Jodi Picoult’s “Handle With Care”.

“I didn’t care when you ate all the Cocoa Puffs so that I had to have Frosted Mini-Wheats as a snack after school. All that mattered was that at 4:30 p.m. I was getting my braces off, after thirty-four months, two weeks, and six days.”

• See? (And don’t get me started on the role Frosted Mini-Wheats play in Stephen King’s “Duma Key”.)

Monetising content, literally
