In honour of Samuel Morse’s birthday today, Google made a nice logo graphic and I wanted to honour him too, in my own way: with haiku.
My usual outlet for haiku, however, is limited to 140 characters, and that gets difficult when each letter is represented by 1-4 characters in Morse Code. If I could write a haiku using mostly E’s, I’s, T’s, M’s, N’s, and A’s, it might fit… but instead, I decided to just go all out and post as a blog post instead of a twitter tweet.
I had the Morse Code translation done automagically, and the same site has a Morse Code DeTranslator as well.
Happy birthday, Samuel Morse!
