Crayon's Part Two
I guess that the right tool can make the job more pleasant. Crayons proved difficult to write with and I think that discouraged a lot of people from wanting to write the well thought out essay they had devised in their mind. Writing is an important part of our communication process. That's why new and different ways to communicate keep evolving- to allow people of all levels and skills of communicating to get their point across. I know some writers are disappointed with the the way writing is evolving, but I think that it's a beautiful thing. I want more and more people to be able to share their thoughts and feelings in a way that comfortable to them.

Yes, I'm sure you're right about using the right tool. (Adam Gopnik might term this the butter -- the material matters of writing.) We will also read in Jay David Bolter and Walter Ong about how writing is, afterall, a technology. We don't generally think of crayons as tools, but they are very much so.
