Just days after we launched the Six-Word Memoir Contest with Twitter, the collaborative nature of the Web started working its 2.0 magic.

Chris Messina—who we’ve never met—decided take the most recently posted six-word memoir and create an online book of sorts. It’s simple and elegant and delights us to know it and he are out there.

Meanwhile, we’re streaming in new six-word memoirs on the right side of the six-word memoir page every day. The memoirs keep pouring out of you and into our in-box—

“70 years, few tears, hairy ears.” -B. Querengesser
“Full of tequila and bad ideas.” -B. Johnson
“Happiest when ignoring huge financial debt.” -A Bryan
“Being a monk stunk. Better gay.” -B. Redman
“Internet famous, for what that’s worth.” -R. Hogan
“Write about sex, learn about love.” -M. Garvey

The contest continues until Christmas. Keep ‘em coming.
