Comments by Two Fingered Typists

Written on November 30, 2005 – 3:30 pm | by Duncan |

Talking with a group of colleagues yesterday I raised the issue of blogging and comments. Why is it that so few people comment on blogs? I discovered a major factor I hadn’t thought about. “Two finger typing”. When you can only type with two fingers it takes a long time to get your thoughts down.

Somehow I learnt to touch type back in the 1980s - it’s made all the difference to my capacity to get my thoughts down online. Needless to say, my handwriting’s not great. Good enough when I need it to be but it takes me a lot longer to write things out by hand.

So here’s a salute to the two fingered typists who manage to type up what they’re thinking.
