If your WPM is fewer than, or equal to, your grandfather’s age on your fifth birthday, then please take typing lessons.
I’m not referring to shorthand or txt lessons…no, I’m talking about cue, double you, e, are, tea, why (skills). Especially if you plan to use your keyboard to communicate via IM.
Also, when IM’ing, prudently utilize the backwards L-shaped key – certainly if depressing that key results in a send.
Receiving news in bits doesn’t bother me. Receiving news in broken
bits is what really angers
me.
Respect the amount of time your recipient wastes watching the “Ross Clurman is currently typing” notification only to realize
that you were just finishing
your thought.
And, under no circumstances should you follow the scattered sentence with a visit to their office, or a phone call for verbal translation.
