so here is some take away ideas about this week reading from Gabrielle and David observation:

• Hyperlink creates a by-product
• Two way writing
• Hyperlink breaks the traditional way of reading, non sequential, people can jump to anywhere, not follow a particular order like reading a book from start to end
• Printing unevenly phased in

However, personally I find that the modern technologies of smartphone, facebook, computer, tweeter…. and other social media, mainly writing is performed electronically and this is really destroying my writing skills. Grammar, spelling… everything is checked as we go. Well in a way it’s a great development in general but I think it more likely to create bad habits for me. I almost feel like I have lost the ability to write longer and academically. I becomes more lay back like I don’t care much about my spelling and sometimes even grammar since I know the device will correct my mistakes for me.

But yes, we can’t deny the conventions of writing. Imagine life without books, newspapers, magazines, blogs, etc, it’s just so boring. And then the art ground is missing out on an amazing medium on earth.
