I really think typing shouldn't replace writing, both should complement each other.. i somehow feel that receiving a handwritten card is more personal. I love typing ,yet, i can't live without having to pen down my thoughts. It has to do with access as well.. one pen and paper ... i remember once i was in a meeting, we agreed on the next meeting date, half had PDA, another half had paper diary. By the time the PDA people switched on their toy and jot it down, the conventional paper diary people were on their way out of the room! Paper diaries do not need battery, no recharge required.. although one can argue you can search on diary like in PDA... a matter of comfort i guess.. THanks.. you know what.. i guess you are a N - acccording to Myers Briggs personality test.. keep on writing and reflecting... can't grow without reflection huh? =) irene -primary school friend of wai kea You can write well !

It makes my mind go slower and I enjoy the actual words more. One problem tho, is that sometimes my writing gets very sloppy when I write fast and then I can't read it! Thx for dropping by my blog!

Just like how we could one day forget how to write again? What about other common activities like driving. Will we forget how to drive one day? Is this the natural evolution of the age of information, where collectively we have a lot of information, but individually we lack information? Are we going to let technology substitute our daily activities, so much so that we have to ask technology how to do a certain thing? like typing into google “What is the order of A to Z?” [...] [...] Will we one day forget the order of A to Z?
