#cmshaiku 2010 Beer Contest
Took an untrodden path once, where the swift don’t win the race,
It goes to the worthy, who can divide the word of truth.
- I AND I
It’s the biggest competition to hit the web in a long time – The 2010 CMS Haiku Beer Contest. We created the fourth worst poetry in history, caused the CEO of Sun to resign, and inspired a prize for the Gilbane Conference in San Francisco. If I have forgotten you, please leave your entry in the comments. You can still make the book.
But enough of that, it’s time to pick the winners. Due to the overwhelming response, I’ve divided the best into six categories of five. Please vote in each category. Voting closes on Feb 10. I’m buying beers for all the winners.
There were many other fine entries. Sadly, a few good ones didn’t meet the strict traditional 5/7/5 syllable rule. We decided that an @ or a # could count as a syllable, but didn’t have to.
Happy voting, and watch this space for the winners.

Ooops. Apology #1. I unfairly disqualied the Daddy of CMS, @TonyByrne, but not pronouncing WYSIWYG (wizzywig) the proper way in my head. Sorry! Here it is in all its glory:
Blame the project lead / Word copy-paste lost format / WYSIWYG don’t work #cmshaiku
In magic quadrant?

Hope I can make the contest entry – here are my two compositions de haiku
1. Re: the Sun resignation via Twitter haiku:
Not just haiku.
A sepaku haiku!
That’s real leadership.
2. Re: the Oracle/Sun press conference, the iPad announcement and The State of the Union address, all on one momentous day:
Oracle Sunrise,
A tablet from Mac Sinai,
Wind from Washington.

Hi Greg,
I had a look. Interesting. But, does it allow me to give beers to people on the other side of the world? That’s the killer App …
