I’m a Lousy Example

And then 3 days after writing the last post, I went and joined Twitter.

I finally signed up after a long time of avoiding it so I can follow my friends.

I’m using TweetSG so I can post from my mobile phone. Being able to post from my phone is about the only draw for me to keep using it, since I can’t do so with any of my blogs (not for free anyway).

Pen or keyboard?

Blogging is cool and all that, convenient, fast and neat and whatever.

I wonder if I should go back to writing with pen and paper, then maybe scan up the pages.

Somehow, it’s not very appealing to think about how people in the future will eventually make a historical film based on some person’s interesting website.

Off the top of my head, a few titles if they were made based on today’s world:

“The Homepage of Anne Frank” (aka “The MySpace of a Young Girl”)
“Bridget Jones’s YouTube Channel”
“The Motorcyle Weblogs”
“Emails From Iwo Jima”

I predict that we’ll probably see movies like that pop up within the next 20 years.

Has the Internet killed the charm of writing?
