If we're fully committing to the new and improved culture, then logically we need to ditch the word "write". The root word of write, is a proto-indo-european word that means 'to cut, mark'. Writing grew out of making permanent cuts on stone and permanent marks on paper. The culture of the writing era exemplified cut earthwork and decorative marks. We don't do that verb anymore, we type. We push buttons and symbolize words in binary streams. Our culture celebrates games, software and movies that are pushed out into the world and symbolize something. We can't keep overloading the meaning of the word 'write' and expect people to understand what's going on.
