The "Ku" suffix

Why all these -ku's all over the place

Life is about fun, and the early users of Jaiku adopted the use of the -ku suffix for many things (and in fact encouraged the clever use of it!)

tripku

A long running thread, where you update (via the comments) what is happening during a trip. THis is done instead of posting a new Jaiku for every event. The benefits are that you can use Markdown syntax, and post longer text in the comments than in Jaiku's.

meetku

A meetup event where multiple Jaiku users will be attending.

drunku

a jaiku sent whilst drunk (often later deleted)
