2. My electronic medium changes a little bit from pen and paper. I usually use acronyms or just shorten a word because I'm to lazy to type the whole thing out. Yes, I am lazy when it comes to typing! I think it's a lot easier then writing stuff down on piece of paper. I would choose to type everything if I could, but sadly I can't. I guess writing isn't to bad but making mistakes on paper you either have to erase or scribble out, which leaves the paper messy. I don't like that, where typing you can eras anything and it will still be neat! My writing can tend to get progressively worse and that's why I like having papers typed because I have really good electronic hand writing.

My Experience with Electronic Writing
1. I've been experiencing electronic writing/typing since about second grade. I started off a little early I guess. But, hey that never hurts! My friends tell me I use Facebook way to much but I like being connected to people who I don't get to see all the time. Facebook was basically my life for at least the past 4 years but that's another story. I've tried Twitter and didn't like it all! You really can't do the stuff on twitter that you can do on Facebook or that you could do on Myspace, which I used to have one but that kind of died out when I got into high school. I've had a lot of experience with electronic writing! I started using e-mail when I was a freshman in high school. We were assigned school e-mail addresses. I think I might have checked it almost everyday whether it was at school or at home. I just loved getting anything from people actually writing to me, it was usually my friends saying something funny, or ads from like Best Buy, Golf Galaxy, etc. Basically any store! I now have two e-mails, obviously the Kent e-mail and I still use my high school e-mail because stuff still gets sent there. Overall good experience.

Good post, Drew. Online social networks like Facebook definitely offer heretofore unseen levels of connectivity.
ReplyDeleteAs someone with very poor handwriting, I certainly identify w/ your last point. Writing is a messy process - but at least, when we write electronically, it doesn't have to LOOK so messy.
