Writing: Electronic vs. Non-Electronic.

Electronic writing has made my typing skills better. Due to the invention of web social networks, such as twitter and facebook, I can now type faster than before. I am more confident in my typing skills. I do feel there is a difference between electronic writing and non electronic writing. I feel as though I do not have to be very formal when I am electronically writing. When I am writing on a piece of paper, I have to make sure every word is spelled correctly and used in the right context. I often find myself making the mistake of writing abbreviations, for example "idk" which is i don't know and "brb" which is be right back, when I am writing on paper. So electronic writing has had a positive and negative input on my writing skills.

  1. I was required to take a "Typing 101" class in high school. I learned nothing. My typing skills were honed during IM sessions : )
