So, this is a comment on a blog post about a blog post about a virtual-reality typewriter that outputs to a service which collates sentences your friends have typed.

Danny Howard has it right.
I think this is a really cool invention –
Did you hear about the guy who got arrested in Egypt and notified his family & friends via Twitter?
With the typewriter, you have a way of communicating if you get stuck in Second Life … otherwise, you’d have walk away from the computer and make a phone call or something …
C’mon guys…not everyone reads a specified blog or will find that content. Spreading the word and making info easier to find is what the internet is all about.
Danny is right! The internet is for pornography ALONE.
