Morse Code Chic

Google's interface is available in many languages, including Klingon and a tongue called Bork, bork, bork!. Why, I wonder, is Morse code not available? It's poised for a resurgence, following artist An Xiao's Morse code blogging on the Brooklyn Museum's Twitter feed.

  1. Let me get this straight, she is going to tweet in Morse Code, which implies that she may need to input up to 5 characters to represent code that would represent a single letter of the alphabet. So the brevity of any given "tweet" will be even greater, but the keystrokes necessary to achieve that brevity will lack brevity.

    Oh Kay.
