    i just was thinking about a convo i had in school , and it was about one of the teachers. she had noticed that her handwriting had become really bad since she started using computers ( for writing out documents etc )

    and i was wondering has anyone else noticed that there handwriting skills have decreased since they have been using msn messenger etc, cause my handwriting has become really bad lately and also i actually wrote LOL on a story i had to write today

    Almost everyone's presentation skills are improved via the use of computer and printer. When I want to I can write a really nice cursive. The corrections and spell check are a real problem with that method. :)

    I'm the opposite, my cursive has really suffered. You should see me try to write out a check...like trying to calcuate pi.

    on the other hand, I still am a very good printer!

    My handwriting has always sucked. Mostly because I think way faster than I can write, and I don't have the patience to write what I'm thinking slow enough to make it neat. I can type 2-3 times faster than I can write, easily, so it's always been my preference. Especially when I learned to type properly in high school and was typing 60+ WPM after 3 months.
