When Famous People Tweet in Haiku
Now that Sun CEO Jonathan Schwartz has resigned via Twitter Haiku, we expect Tiger Woods, Steve Jobs, Sarah Palin, and Kanye West to start Haikuing too. Here’s what it might look like.
You’ve got to hand it to Jonathan Schwartz. The (now former) CEO of Sun Microcomputer turned in his resignation today in a manner truly befitting the modern high tech exec: on Twitter, via haiku:
Financial crisis
Stalled too many customers
CEO no more
We see a trend here. Within a few short years, we predict all technocrats will be communicating exclusively via haiku. In fact, it will probably look something like this:
Michael Arrington
My bloated ego
Murdered my beloved CrunchPad
Hey JooJoo: Screw you
MORE PHANTOM TEXT HERE
Guy Kawasaki
Tweet haiku; how cool
I may send out fifty-five
Without writing one
Even beauty queens
Deserve some respect. Unless
They’re Carrie Prejean

Sergey Brin
China: Suck my balls
Google is better than you
Though your Moo Goo’s good.
Bill Gates
More money than God
Yet I still don’t have a clue
How to put on pants

Tom Anderson
MySpace was your space
Then you left me for Facebook
Your profiles all sucked
Tiger Woods
So many women
But after alimony
I’m the one who’s fucked

Biz Stone
Ah, the irony
My name, for Christ’s sake, is Biz
Where’s my Bizness plan?
Steve Jobs
Why yes, it is true
I am a God among men
Thanks for noticing

Kanye West
Yes, I know it’s true
I am the world’s biggest douche
But I’m also rich
Sarah Palin
From my backyard I
Can see Russia. Even with
My head up my ass
