FINGERWORK

I'm a crap typist at the best of times. I use two fingers and have to watch the keyboard all the time to make sure that I hit the right keys. Sometimes this is frustrating if the cursor isn't positioned right or engaged so that several lines of typing registers nothing.


When I purchased the iPad my typing problems increased. The touch screen keypad is very sensitive and small so it is really easy to make mistakes.



The iPhone is even worse in that it is smaller.


So, in terms of human evolution where are we headed?
If technological tools are to become more and more miniaturised are we going to develop ET-like digits?
