(16,922 posts)I flunked typing in high school
I went thru college with my trusty Adler portable at my side or perhaps in front of me.
I used white out and correction tape. what keys i hit were the keys i got.
When i would get half way thru a page and understood the paragraph i was typing made absolutely no f&&king sense at all, my options were limited.
Technology has given me tools. I like that i get the little red line under a word when i spell it creatively. I like that I can save and edit a doc after i have had time to wake up and look at the doc with fresh eyes. I like that i can instantly send the doc all across the world to get someone else's opinion and editing.
I like that i can save a copy of what i write so if it gets lost, re-submission is just a click.
In retrospect, I wonder if the papers i submitted could have been improved if the production of them was not such a nightmare.
Will i use the new fangled toy?
If i can figure it out, perhaps.
But i still have my Adler in the basement.
