Some Things Are Best On Paper
by Lynette
As crazy as I am with technology, there are some things that just don’t work right electronically - in my opinion. Take for example Sudoku (are you a Sudoku fan too?). I’m so engrossed with this puzzle and sometimes spend hours on weekends just doing puzzle after puzzle, on paper.
I find it easier to solve on paper because you can write down all the possibilities and see clearly what to rule out or rule in. This unique capability is lost on the electronic versions. That doesn’t mean I haven’t been tempted, but after a quick think - nah. Give me paper.

I love Sudoku too and although I have not tried electronic versions of it … I do love the paper version.
I agree with “liking paper” more than anything else - I get more creative writing on paper - it helps knowing that I can erase, correct, add stuff and be totally portable …

Yay! Another Sudoku mommy.
Totally with you on the creativity part. I start all articles and letters on paper first. This actually shocked some of my co-workers when I was still working outside the home.

I love Sodoku too! But have to admit we have at least three electronic versions of the game. DH and I like to have contests to see who can beat it the fastest.

Sometimes the low tech solution is the best solution.

Well you’re a better player than I am Tsoniki
I don’t even time myself - just do it so I have something else to do.
