Journal #9 Digital Technologies

With the many technical advances we live with today, things have become so much easier to accomplish. From watching TV shows through our phones, and booking trips, we can also even use different devices as our own personal life reminders. The same revolutions have brought about a new way of writing. Many of us have access to many advances such as computers, the aforementioned phones, tablets, and even E-readers that can also double as being devices used to create digital writing and share with the masses. There are now even TV's with "SmartTouch" that allow you to watch your shows and email by touching the screen.

So exactly what does this mean for writing? This means that writing has entered an evolved state where it has become a dominant part in many of our lives. Even through texting, we may not use 100% correct grammar, but  we are still doing another form of writing as a means of communication. Technology has evolved so much that writing is accessible from almost anywhere now which means anyone can write. Technology has evolved so much past expectations that many no longer consider the many ways writing happen each day, considering it just a part of life when it really has not always been like this. Writing, along with many things has evolved with our society and stands to benefit from the many technological advances we make.
