"Stop Writing For the Web"
Watch the talk
Starting to write things down really changed the way that we formulated and communicated thoughts.
For knowledge to be preserved, it had to be expressed in interesting, memorable words. Because if the knowledge didn’t persist in the thought of a living human, it disappeared. And I kind of wish we had that today.
It’s so strange that we can type all day long in these chat interactions, but when your brain goes into “writing mode,” it explodes.
The only way to create good interactive language is by interacting with other people.
