I was walking down Gloucester Road yesterday when I saw this old typewriter in an alley. 

I took about 20 or so shots of the machine (which were much less interesting after opening them up in the Gimp)  when I realized just how far information and communications technologies have come.  

The hammers were locked up and the machine must have weighed close to 50 pounds. I'm not kidding.

Did it have Wifi?  No.  USB?  Nope. Could it play <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eq8Bz8gByWs">Neil Young vids from You Tube</a>?  Not a chance. Could you take it on an airplane?  No way.  Could your friends easily receive copies of the pages you typed?  Not unless you mailed them out each time you made a revision.
