And now for something light

Sometimes it’s good to take a breather, so today I’m sharing a twitter limerick I wrote with all of you.

There is a service called twitter
A place to shine and to glitter
And in one forty letters
Prove that you’re better
To all of the bloggers so bitter

Well. . . I’m not completely sure that twitter is “better” than blogging, but brevity certainly reaches more people. Very few are willing to take the time to read an entire article, but 140 characters here and there is just the thing. I think that in 5 years there will be more minimalistic post sites built on software like StatusNet (formerly laconica) than there are blogging sites now.

What do you think? (Limericks of your own are welcome)
