Writing Electronically

1.) The experience that I have with electronic writing is mostly through email and blogging. I would say that I email more than I blog, but I have done both quite extensively. During my senior year, I was in a class called 21st Century Online. It was the first time this class had been offered at my high school and I thought it looked interesting. The class ended up being all about blogging. Every week we would have a prompt and then we would have to blog about that specific prompt. Even though, at the time, I thought that the class was pointless, I now see that it helped me in the long run.

2.) I believe that my writing changes immensely when I use an electronic medium, especially when I am using my cell phone. When sending a text message I usually do not make small corrections. If I spell the word "don't", then I usually would not put the apostrophe in the word. I believe that it is just a habit that I have taken on. I think that if I really took the time to look through the message that I am sending, then there would not be as many errors. All I see it as is a person being careless and not taking the time to fix his/her errors.
