One of my agency’s clients, T-Mobile, has been working on a text poetry competition. You can win £1000 for coming up with the best 160 characters: see the blog for more info. Submissions have to be in by 5th April, if you’re interested, but thought, especially once I saw Tom Watson’s Twitter Poetry, that some of my fellow Twitterers would be interested.

I’m a big fan of Twitter, though I won’t try to justify its existence here and now (I’m aware it polarises people). But: if you want to have a go, here is some tag action to stimulate you into Twitter poetry greatness.

Chris, Tom, DoctorVee, Simon, Scoble (you know you love Twitter when the Ninja tells you to stop sending so many updates!), Chris G, Drew B: fancy yourselves poets?
