maeku (前句), a journalling platform

The term maeku is used to describe elements of the Japanese collaborative poetry genre renga. Specifically, maeku refers to a verse where unlikely words are strung together to evoke a new or surprising image.

Maeku is a Ruby on Rails-based journalling platform. Eventually, it will support multiple users and be extensible with multiple post types. It's inspired by Tumblr, Hi.co (defunct), Japanese poetry, and the idea of controlling your own blog content on the web.

Maeku is not ready to be used yet.
