The typewriter could perhaps be the most productive device on that list. I mean it's more productive than say, WriteRoom with fullscreen distraction mode. Perhaps its existence could be justified because it really forces one to choose their words carefully, no backspace right.
Hmm, maybe I should find a typewriter and hack it to post to my posterous.
- mahmud 16y agoBy the very late 80s type writers had both backspace and various types of typographic emphasis (I distinctly recall bold, italic and underline, you could also type in red and black.) I used to use my mom's electric typewriter to fit more text into a postcard ;-)
