It seems to be less important to a generation who writes short forms in e-mail, text messaging and on chat lines. Men especially have complained about their big thumbs as they try to type on the small keyboard. He said the keyboard has to be bigger.

Every time I cue it up, I am in front of my keyboard ready to go. It’s an auditory signal that fires me up to write. Do I need to pick up detergent? Do I have to pick my up my laundry? After 50 minutes of writing, I just take a break, stand up, stretch, and get back to it after 10 minutes. Same Music.

by Stefan Töpfer on Nov 07, 2007 A few years ago I decided to change over to Apple computers from Windows based computers and up until now it seemed the right decision.

I enjoyed having a full QWERTY keyboard without all of the keys, in such compact form factor. So, I read up on other Smartphones available through T-Mobile. However, neither the HTC myTouch nor the Samsung Behold 2 have a keyboard. Previous to that I owned the Blackberry Pearl 8100, and before that the Blackberry 7100t.

Interacting with like-minded people are just a click and several keyboard strokes away. If you aren’t that familiar with the many shapes and forms of social media, chances are you haven’t been in the business long enough.

He slumps over his keyboard day after day wondering why the writing gods are always punishing him. Just set up a writing routine and follow it exactly, every day. I wake up early, pour a cup of coffee, step onto the patio for a minute, stretch, and then head back in to my desk. You know that stereotype of the tortured writer?
