    Gah, my house modem got short-circuited and I can't use Google Docs. Talk about a rough start.

    will you be writing on a plain old word processing program like some sort of prehistoric dinosaur, then? ;)  my car’s keyless entry didn’t work the other day, and i stood there with the thing in my hand, like what the hell do i do now? I love the conveniences of modern technology, but wow, it makes me feel like a moron sometimes.

    I'll probably have to go to a cyber cafe or free-wifi zone with my laptop, copy paste my Google Doc content into Microsoft Word then resume work that way. Worse case scenario, I might have to use a tablet.

    Prehistoric dinosaur?!! I'll have you know I do all my work on Word. It hasn't failed me yet.

    @ pocky- worst case scenario, eh? Lol. @ harrow- me too! :) it’s just funny what we get used to. Our internet went out the other day and I just sat there like, what do I do now? Everything was so dark.

    I am also on Word. Hail to Word! The program that doesn't need interwebs. Lol, I have even resisted upgrading my old laptop to modern word. I keep a good workhorse 2010 version handy because I know I don't need the interwebs to use it. Not so sure about them newfangled programs. *rocks in rocking chair*

    But what happens when there's a sudden blackout and you forgot to save your word count? There's a reason why I prefer Google Docs... But each to his/her accord I guess.

    Alright, Karver got me here. I'll join in the House of Pain :D

    My username is caladran and I'll be working on new chapter Alda'hirakam ghar Ara. Though, I'm not sure if I'll hit the 10K during this month.
