There’s been an interesting trend evolving online. Some call it the lazy person’s prose. Others, a succinctly joyous form of communication. Whatever your take on it, the Haiku appears to have found a place on the Interwebs.

I stumbled across Paul Carr’s (Bringing Nothing to the Party: True Confessions Of A New Media Whore) latest effort covering New Media news in the form of a daily haiku. The site is called Haikurious and reminds me a lot of a website I used to covet back in the day called Memepool. Other haiku websites that have cropped up online include Twitterku which was one of the first ones that I truly followed through my twitter account. Some more unique ones that I’ve found along the way, iPhone Haiku, the Red Sox Haiku and the soon-to-come E-Verse Haiku.

I started to wonder if this is where websites are heading. Are we too busy to digest information longer than 3 lines? I hope not and I don’t think so.

I’d like to end the post with a haiku but the title was enough to make my head hurt. Anyone want to finish it up for me?
