Ten Internet Haikus

by Kaila Colbin , Featured Contributor, January 18, 2013

Instagram bought by

Facebook. Privacy erodes.

Who could have guessed it?

If I never hear

the phrase “future-proof” again,

it will be too soon.

Another day brings

a new social commerce site.

Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?

You know me better

than anyone in the world,

Facebook and Google.

Can’t come up with a

name for my online start-up.

Time to remove some vwls.

Disaster coming?

First update Facebook status.

Then run for cover.

Wandering confused.

Lost and don’t know where I am.

Must be Apple Maps.

My real life is not

so cool. But my Instagram

life is amazing.

Want to force yourself

to disconnect more? Leave the

power cord at work.

Paying for Web friends

is no more effective than

paying for real ones.

Homage is flattery...
Curating Kaila on "AdScam"
Holistically artisanal.

Bugger... Like David. No line breaks... Should be a break between "AdScam" and Holistically.
I'll post it on AdScam after my three martini lunch. Hic.
Cheers/George
