If only mobile devices supported some sort of wireless protocol for keyboards.
I agree that tablets and phones prioritize content consumption over content creation, but that's what most people want. As Steve Jobs said: Tablets are cars. Laptops and desktops are trucks. Trucks will still be around in the future, but most people won't use them. After all, what would they need a truck for?
Edit: Since it wasn't obvious, yes my first sentence was a joke.
- mooreds 12y agoSorry, is your first statement a joke? Modern phones support Bluetooth, and here's a link to keyboards for iOS: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4112 http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4112 I disagree that most people want to consume rather than produce. After all, more people are "producing" more than ever, especially with non text content like images. What is lacking is depth. As the author said in his final sentence, 140 characters and images won't really spark much discussion. Of course authors who used a typewriter probably complained about lack of depth when you didn't have to use white out to fix mistakes.
