The difference in writing
I believe that writing online is extremely different than writing on paper simply because the flow of ideas can come easier and you can clearly visualize what your writing on the screen rather than on paper. For me Writing on computer is also faster and more comfortable simply because i can have my laptop pretty much anywhere and whip it out to finish a quick writing assignment in the comfort of whatever area i happen to be in at the time. Writing on the computer also allows you to change your work easily and not have to white anything out with some form of corrective tape, so in turn it makes proof reading and correction easier where as sometimes on paper depending on what your writing medium was, changes can look sloppy and unorganized. When it comes to personal preference and style of writing I'd rather choose to write on a computer than on paper because what i do and say i can see and read out loud while i type it, however my style of writing doesn't change. What i mean is, if I'm writing a formal paper on the computer it will be the same style and attitude that i would compose on paper the only difference really in the situation is that I would complete it quicker on a computer.

Editing is FAR easier on a computer...that's an important point. Electronic communication makes revision a snap.
