Posted: tdyTWEETVILLE -- Responding to Twitter and Facebook users' ever-shrinking attention spans, a couple of Silicon Valley entrepreneurs have moved to fill the void with a new concept called micronanoblogging.
Where Twitter's microblogging platform limits users to 140 characters and nanoblogger platforms allow just one-word entries, Micronanoblogger allows just three characters, including punctuation.
"New," said Derek Del Carlo, co-founder and head of technology development for Micronanoblogger.
"Fun," he added.
Not everyone thinks the new platform is such a good idea. Many doomed it to failure, all in three characters.
"Dum," said user CutlassSoupReam, who then immediately deleted his account.
