Noveller – the micro-blogging tool for novels

JA December 06

Some light distraction for your Sunday morning – Noveller is a spoof twitter site that was created by the good people over at The Onion. The accompanying article is a must-read – they write:

Noveller, the online macroblogging service that lets users post their impromptu narrative ruminations on modern life, society, and the nature of existence itself, celebrated its millionth post late last week, officially making it the world's most popular prose-sharing tool.

Social media experts said they're not surprised so many people have subscribed to the exciting new site, as it's the only online service in which users can post a major multivolume epic in the morning, and have it read, critiqued, and reNovelled by thousands of other people around the world before lunch.

‘You know, before we came up with Noveller, we had all these friends creating these great 75,000- to 300,000-word works of fiction, but there was no quick, easy, fun way to share them,’ cofounder Chuck Gregory said. ‘To be honest, we were stunned there wasn't already anything like it out there. It seemed so obvious.’

Try signing in for laughs.
