Sorry but for me this kind of spelling is just awful. Maybe, just maybe, I use "4", "2" & "u" but that's it. I'm kind of a Grammar Nazi... Read a book for Christ's sake!
ReplyDeleteDear Alejandro, you'll probably be fighting against many teenagers... hahahaha, good point, though.
DeleteI’m not against the technology. Actually, I think technology is a good way to be always updated with what it is happening in the world, a good way of keeping the mind busy. From my point of view the problem is that sometimes the technology (and more than the technology, the social networks) rules people’s life. I don’t know how many times I have seen people in a restaurant texting instead of talking…can you imagine how sad it is?
ReplyDeleteFor me alienation is more important than the spelling (I hate the bad spelling, but I think that’s can be easier fixed).
There are other ways of finding out what's going on in the world and to have your mind busy... however, nowadays it just seems to be easier through technology... However, I am afraid fighting against it will not solve the problem... thanks for taking your time to share. DD
