Read write and ramble

RSI


Textspeak, twitter and twaddle


As part of my weekly ramble I'm going to clamber on my soapbox and let loose.  This week, month year as a frequent observer and commentator of what's happening in my universe I feel I need to comment on English and what's going on with the "kids" and adults out there.


English evolves as does everything but recently with technology it has moved on at an exponential-big word-rate !  Mobile phones and free texting  has lead us to abbreviated textspeak, lol replacing laughter as "genuine " noise and general muteness and lack of conversation around the globe.


RSI amongst teenagers is a new phenomena and is on the increase-caused in part through texting, I'm not against texting per se but I am against texting replacing normal communication.  Where is it going to lead us?


Constant communication of nothing, empty vacuous drip, drip, drips of odd snippets of words, letters smiley icons, emoticons are dragging me down.




Once vented, perhaps an attempt at some kind of English as cobbled together by moi in the form of a book review.


Drowning not waving!

Review to follow
