Texting is writing?
Texting something we all do its a routine that is done mostly everyday. We may think that its nothing but texting is an important writing technique that we all use. Using slang in writing such as LOL, OMG, and BRB are prefect examples of how writing has evolved to fit our ways of texting with each other. From shortening words to adding simplicity in our texting we are creating a new way of writing without really thinking about it. Since its vastly being people their have been many additions to this writing with many new words being created. Texting is as important as regular writing due the fact that we text more than writing alone allowing us to make a lot more interesting writing with text without really using proper writing techniques. It has evolved to create its way of correcting and techniques so that it can be simplified for all of us.

Correcting our essays? SWEEETTT!
Corrections something that most students can say isn't fun since we need to know many rules when writing sentences, using proper grammar, and choosing the correct word. Word correction everybody's best friend letting us correct any mistake that we might commit in our papers. Technology has gone this far to be able to find mistakes that we wouldn't be able to find by just skimming through it. It catches almost every mistake although it requires a human to find those specific mistakes technology is able to read through your essay and determine Due to algorithms that are added into the programs we can see that their adding simplicity into our life's when it comes to writing. With these amazing correcting tools that come standard with any program it will guide millions of students to correctly proof read their essay without taking much of their time in creating it. In "International Handbook of Literacy and Technology" By Michael C. McKenna also talks about how corrections have been improving time management and productivity when writing.

Will this Blog help more than reading something else?
Blogging is a much more effective way of distributing any message since it can be easily be found or can be brought up when someone shares it. Since its electronic its open for everyone by looking for just one key word it can be found in a matter of seconds. If we look at the new and old ways of distributing a message Technology has become an important role in distributing any message in a much faster and reliant method. While the using the old method that uses technology can be very hard to spread the word due the limited people that can be reached since you can only share it with a very limited amount of people. Most of the people you shared it to will most than likely forget about it and might not bring it up anymore. Thus, leading us t use technology to distribute the message as stated above since technology will record the date that you shared the certain world leading us to backtrack and be able to share it with a lot more people. Technology is will be the leading way to share anything that we have to say or want to say. In " Technology a key tool in Writing Instructions" by Eschoolnews.com clarifies the idea of how internet blogs have a higher chance to be read than those of physical writing since it could take a while to be found. Discouraging the students to not bother in finding it. Also explaining how blogs would be a lot helpful in creating essays due to the deep explanations that are presented in them.
