MYKU History and Lore….

Before the internet, email, and computers, a busy college student began writing four line poems. This was all he had time to do. Haiku, with a twist, he called it Myku. Years later, he emailed a myku to a friend and received a response in the form of a myku! Back and forth it went, with others joining in along the way. These friends discovered that they communicated about things they would not normally discuss, so they kept on. Unfortunately, keeping track of notable mykus proved frustrating. They decided to build MYKU World, to allow them to write, read and store Myku conversations. Welcome to Myku World!
