			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://http//store.muledesign.com/shirts/koolaid.php">Mule Design</a> came out with this Web 2.0/Kool-Aid mashup t-shirt. But why? Simply to express their enthusiasm for the state of the net by conflating Web 2.0 and delicious fruity powders that turn into refreshing beverages?</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2591" src="http://technabob.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/koolaid_lg.gif" alt="Web 2.0 Kool-Aid t-shirt" width="338" height="320" /></p>
<p>Nope. I&#8217;m pretty sure this is a highly niche geek product aimed at those of us who remember Steve Rubel&#8217;s much-cited blog post from last fall entitled <em><a href="http://www.micropersuasion.com/2007/10/the-web-20-worl.html">The Web 2.0 World is Skunk Drunk on Its Own Kool-Aid</a>. </em>And Rubel, of course, was using the Jonestown massacre metaphor in his title. I could go on, but at this point it&#8217;s all getting much too meta for me.</p>
<p>Anyway, did you ever notice how Kool-Aid man has a crewcut made of ice cubes? I didn&#8217;t until just now. So: T-shirt! Kool-Aid! Web 2.0! Yaaaaaaay!  Get one for $20 at <a href="http://store.muledesign.com/shirts/koolaid.php">Mule Design</a>, and don&#8217;t worry, I don&#8217;t think anyone will get the reference.</p>
