WE live in a world where often too much information is available, yet people have too little time. So increasingly we want our content in small yet constant doses. And we want it now. On demand. All the time.

It could be micro-blogging via Twitter, like what INQUIRER.net executive editor Leo Magno, tech reporter Erwin Oliva and multimedia reporter Izah Morales are doing, bringing updates from Cagayan de Oro using their mobile phones at twitter.com/talesofthenomad.

It could be the bunnies of Angry Alien Productions, who give 30-second reenactments of movies such as “Alien,” “Kill Bill,” “Die Hard” and “Borat.” In fact, the site’s bunny version of “Brokeback Mountain” won two Webby awards this year. I’ve been watching the bunnies for years now, and my favorite is still one of the very first ones I saw, “Jaws.” You have to watch it heh

It could be flash fiction, also known by different names such as short short story or microfiction. I remember Sacha Chua being a flash fiction enthusiast when we first met online years ago, when she contributed some literary pieces to our YOU site. Check out some samples of Sacha’s flash fiction.

Another site you can visit for flash fiction is Flash Fiction Online. Let me know if you have other sites you can recommend.

Now go have a bite.

LAST week, we held our dry run in using Twitter for our Tales of the Nomad blog, with our multimedia reporter Izah Morales and online videographer Janie Christine Octia twittering their journey to Lucban, Quezon and the actual Pahiyas festival itself, and multimedia specialist Erika Tapalla giving updates on the AsiaPay event at Mag:net Cafe at Bonifacio High Street.

Check out the Tales of the Nomad Twitter page at twitter.com/talesofthenomad. The updates are also available via the Twitter badge at our Tales of the Nomad blog.

Oh, and yup, I’ve also decided to give in to Twitter, heh, I know, I know, better late than never So if you have time, check out twitter.com/joeyatplay

Cheers!
