Android Haikus: A Few of Our Favorites

In order to enter our Nexus 7 and Google Play gift card contest, from yesterday, we asked that readers come up with an Android related haiku. We had no idea what to expect, but it turned out to be pure gold. The DL community came through in a big way, creating some of the most entertaining and thought-provoking poems. While our winner was chosen at random, we still wanted to highlight some of our favorites. There were over 1700 entries, so we couldn’t possibly read them all, but we definitely dove into a big chunk.

Here are some of the best.
