Baron

There was one experience in Baron's essay that I could relate to,all too well. "...the physical effort of handwriting,crossing out, revising, cutting and pasting, in short, the writing practices I had been engaged in regularly since the age of four, now seemed to overwhelm and constrict me, and I longed for the flexibility of digitized text" (Baron,16). This experience stuck out to me only because I feel it almost all the time. Writing like he says takes real physical effort on the writers part. There's no real short cut in correcting a mistake when your writing. With the word processor all you have to do is push backspace or move the cursor and correct it later if you like. But there's always that one person you know or have seen that won't give up that pen or pencil because when they see a computer they see evil. But the like the pencil the word processor didn't change writing it only helped it. It has made it easier to write and make corrections without making a mess on a typewriter or with an ink pen. But even though we are able to reproduce books faster and whip out history papers faster than before, people are still opposed to computers. All in all it's just history repeating itself each time a new technology comes a


And that's the pattern of technology since the beginning. They don't want to have to do a whole lot to get something done. Things come and go with the blink of an eye and we don't want to miss a thing because we were too busy figuring out how to do some function on our word processorEach technology wasn't invented on purpose to be the next big thing. My stepmother will always be a good example for resistance towards technology. And to this day I've only seen her use it maybe twice and it's because even though it's not complicated she doesn't like computers. This machine allows me to do multiple things all at once without losing any order in my projects. You see my dad bought her a very simple laptop, in fact I think it was one of the first kinds ever made. I've noticed that people don't like complicated technology. It took some time but after you get use to the complications all of a sudden they go away, and I loved playing on the computer. And of course just as I got the hang of DOS they came around with Windows. I had to go for the whole first week and a half without my computer because my monitor broke and I almost lost it. "The computer is simply the latest step in a long line of writing technologies. Unlike my stepmother, I use my computer for pretty much everything. Like take for example my stepmother, she use to hate computers, but she never really said why.
