Digital Era already came computers, cellphones, mp3 player, digital camera, video camera, LCD and Plasma this are only few things that we have now in our Digital life. Because of this new equipments our way of life change ever since we use it. Now we have a better communication and better entertainment gadgets to use. Some of us are proud and happy of having this way of life. But can you see also the changes in human behavior and character since we have this digital life? Have you notice something change? The that I notice especially in the Philippines is the usage of mobile phone. By using SMS some of us doing shortcuts on word and even spelling we change it. I notice also that children now have poor in spelling because of doing this kind of sending SMS. Do you notice something also change in our life?

I actually try to spell out words when I text someone. I do not want to assume that everyone will know what word I am trying to use.

The same thing happened in my country,We use computer more often ,sometimes I forgot how to write a character.I had to say the computer changed our life. On one side it convenient us very much,but on the other side many people abandon themselves in games,especially children,fortunately our government has realized the problem,they are doing sth do change the situation.

yes my friend, this is a very serious problem now a days. not only do we use a lot of shortcuts when we are writing or even typing, but also because of the wrong spelling, we tend to pronounce the words in wrong manner and that is something which will hurt our knowledge. now a days, languages are taught for the sake of communication only. there is no intention to teach the literature and the culture which the language comes with. this is something which is already hurting by a change in our reading and writing mindsets and abilities. for spellings, we rely more on text checkers and Microsoft words rather than our own ability...
