12 Reasons to Ditch the Pen - Why it's no longer mightiest against the sword


The time has come to mourn the death of the pen which is quickly being replaced with digital writing tools like laptops, cell phones, iTouches, iPads, etc. etc. etc. Just like those who mourn the paper we hear similar rumblings when it comes to the passing of the pen.
  • But I love the feel of the pen on the page.
  • Taking notes (an outdated skill) with a pen helps me understand what I’m hearing.
  • I need a pen to capture my thoughts, the keyboard just isn’t the same.
