Fooling With Words' site includes videos of poets such as Amiri Baraka reading their works. Though the technology is still mostly experimental, many broadcasters already are providing convergence-type content. The site, created by New York affiliate WNET, will be up at least three years, PBS spokeswoman Donna Williams says. The 21 poets featured include Barks, Amiri Baraka, Lucille Clifton, Robert Pinsky, Marge Piercy, Stanley Kunitz, W.S. Merwin, Jane Hirshfield and Mark Doty, some of whom also will be shown in PBS' upcoming Sounds of Poetry, a follow-up series with more interviews and poems. On the site, you can see streaming video of poets reading and talking about their work, find links to dozens of other poetry sites and post your poems.
