[Volume 8 Issue 9, #1786]

上個星期我貼咗個(限量版)手寫post.. 因為長年依賴電腦打字嘅緣故, 手寫過程中先發覺寫字好似一件好陌生嘅事情, 哈哈.. 所以手字睇落總係怪怪地, 而最困擾嘅就係有好多字都已經唔記得點寫!! 之前聽過某電台DJ話, 我哋依家大部份人都係「認字」而非真正「識字」, 我好認同噃!! 尤其依家科越係先進, 唔識寫可以用intelligent suggestion, 寫錯咗可以用auto correction, 就係於一堆字中揀個啱嘅咁簡單.. 所以話喺有得揀嘅大前提之下, 認得佢就可以啦, 仲駛乜識佢吖?? 咁即係點呢?? 簡單啲嚟講, 咪就係話我哋現代人太過依賴科技囉.. 好多基本嘢都漸漸被淘汰被遺忘, 其實又唔可以話係一面倒嘅壞事, 睇下當中嘅方便快捷, 同埋以前曾被認為係天馬行空嘅事情, 都變成有可能發生嘅事情.. 我個人認為有好亦有壞囉, 我係歡迎新科技去輔助而唔係去顛倒原有嘅核心價值, 不過都係在於個人嘅睇法啫.. :)

last week i posted a (limited edition) handwritten post.. because all these years i have been relying on the keyboard to type, in the process of writing i realized that writing was quite an alien thing to me, haha.. hence the handwriting somehow looked weird, and more sadly was that there were a lot of words that i have problems spelling them out!! i once heard a radio DJ saying, that most of us nowadays tend to only "recognize" words but not actually "know" the word, i surely agree with what he said!! especially with the ever advancing technology, if we do not know the word we can always rely on intelligent suggestion, if we got the word spelt wrongly we can always rely on auto correction, all we need to do is merely choosing the right one to use from the list of suggested words.. thus under such a circumstance, it's sufficient that we just recognize the words but really knowing them isn't necessary.. so, what does that mean?? put it simple, it shows that we are now too dependent on technology.. many basics have been eliminated and forgotten, but that doesn't mean it is an absolute bad thing, look at what we enjoy from the timeliness and convenience, and those that were thought impossible become possible now.. i personally think it is a mixture of pros and cons, and i surely welcome new technology to assist but not to mess up with the original core values, anyway it's up to the views of individuals to say.. :)
