Hawkeye :: Murali’s Blog

A very interesting thought came up last night when I was getting back home form work and listening to Tom Merrit, Molly Wood & Leo Laporte on CNET’s Buzz out Loud podcast. The folks on the podcast discussed how novels in SMS lingo is rave in Japan and then tossed up a concept wherein Twitter can be used (by one or more users) to serially micro-blog a novel. The challenge of course is that every sentence of your can only contain 160 characters. I find this entire concept rather cool and am willing to give this a shot. For one, it helps me find a creative vent to my energies and also helps because while I have always wanted to write a book, I dont quite have the patience for that

Looks like BOL crew have started something off. Keep checking it and if you want to micro-blog a story with me leave a comment here
