Sam Woodfin and Kingsley Joseph have "handwritten" their comments using ink while responding to previous article on the decaying art of handwriting. [read the image above]

Alex has also voiced a similar concern:

When I became a desk monkey armed with a computer and a laptop during meetings, I practically forgot how to write. Perhaps the use of my pen then, was to sign my name.. 

Heck, make me type and I can do around 60-70 wpm with decent accuracy... And we belong to a generation who spent a lot of years using pen and paper. So will this mean that the next generation will be keyboard ninjas all?

You have gorgeous penmanship. I feel like I learned a lot about you from that graphic. Thanks for carrying the torch for the "written" word.

Oh, wow! I wondered why I was getting so many hits from Digital Inspiration. When I opened Google Reader this morning, I found out! Thanks for the manual trackback, Amit! This definitely makes up for any lack of indexing! :)
