I got so excited when he said that it really was possible to write at 100 words a minute but then he said that it's nearly impossible to actually learn Gregg, I wonder if there's a website somewhere....
About the Livescribe: it's an okay pen but difficult to hold. and somewhat awkward because of the camera at the tip, but it could depend on the way you hold pens.

- shadowfox 12y agoJust want to add that there are other shorthands which are pretty solid (and more easily available). For example, Pitmans: http://www.long-live-pitmans-shorthand.org.uk/ http://www.long-live-pitmans-shorthand.org.uk/
- danohuiginn 12y agoI'd advise against Pitmans, unless you plan to take it very seriously. Pitmans is one of the more complicated forms of shorthand, and relies on differentiating between hard and gentle lines. I found Teeline, for instance, much easier to get going with.
- coldpie 12y agoI think it's only useful to learn if you actually do a lot of writing, especially in time-sensitive situations like dictation or interviews. If it's just something you're interested in as a novelty, but you don't actually do more handwriting than a few notes during meetings at work, you're probably not going to get enough practice to have any success.
