Our screens are still not good enough to avoid eye strain and still do not provide the tactile arrangement paper does. I have been typing as long as I have been reading, and I will still go to hard copy if I have to edit a manuscript of any length.
We still need printers.
- unclebucknasty 10y agoI agree, and that makes my point. The need for innovation is in technologies that can adequately replace paper; not in better printers.
- copperx 10y agoApple's retina screens take care of the resolution aspect. However, the software side needs a new paradigm to deal with digital paper. PDF files are not the solution.
- ebiester 10y agoI need to look at four pieces of paper and write on them and draw arrows on them at once without breaking my flow. That's four ipads at this point, and there's still no great way of flipping between pages. There is something about the 3Dness of a stack of papers that makes moving to digital difficult.
