Jabberwocky 2.0

I had this great question I was going to ask all five six* of you today, but I want to share this instead. I wish I could say I made it up, but credit for that has to go to Brendan Cooper. Come back tomorrow for the question.
`Twas Twitter, and the MySpace Mixx
Did Pownce and Plaxo on the web:
All Woophy were the DotNetKicks,
And the socialogs Friendfed.

"Beware the YahooMash, my son!
The jaws that Joost, the claws that Cloob!
Beware the Qoolsqool bird, and shun
The CouchSurfing DailyHub!"

He took his Xanga sword in hand:
Long time the Blogmeme foe he sought -
So rested he by the Bebo tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in ThisNext thought he stood,
The YahooMash, with FARK of flame,
Came Xing through the Nettby wood,
And LinkedIn as it came!

Blipoo! Badoo! And through and through
The Buzzflash blade went ZigaZoga!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went a-googling back.

"And, has thou slain the YahooMash?
Come to my arms, my blogger boy!
O Phanfare day! Kaioo! Kazaa!'
He jaiku in his joy.

`Twas Twitter, and the MySpace Mixx
Did Pownce and Plaxo on the web:
All Woophy were the DotNetKicks,
And the socialogs Friendfed.
* Turns out Matthew Ingram reads this blog on occasion. I had forgotten that when I tallied all known readers yesterday.
