Man at Computer Writing - Free Art
Images for Christians
©2010 GospelGifs
Picture of a man at a desktop computer, using the
keyboard to write. Original clip art produced by Jim Sutton.
Sending a message to a friend, these days, is
more apt to be accomplished by a desktop, laptop or notebook
computer or a hand-held device, like a PDA or cell phone, than
with pen and ink. The revolution came almost suddenly,
after centuries of very little change. Yes, when I was
young, people did often use a mechanical or sometimes an
electric typewriter. By the time I was well into my teens, the
word processor (a digital typewriter) was becoming more
widespread for home use. By the time my own children were
all born and growing up, the personal computer was being
marketed for the American home. Then came the explosion of
mobile phones, which looked nothing like the cell phones of
today. Mostly used in cars, at the beginning, the mobile phone
was big and heavy.
Many changes have come along in electronic
technology and in batteries themselves. Today, batteries are
much lighter and more powerful than they were when people wrote
letters, and even whole book manuscripts, by hand or typewriter.
And more can be done with today's cell phone, especially with a
Smartphone, than could be done on a home computer when the first
PC hit the market. A lot more. For one thing, we have the
Internet, and communication towers and antennas everywhere
(well, almost everywhere), so that people can call or text or
email each other instantly.
The man in the picture above is using a home
computer to write a message. It might be an email he is sending
to a friend of business contact. Or it might be a formal letter
than will be printed out onto paper and mailed in an
old-fashioned paper envelope. Or it might be a book, a catalog
description, a blog entry, a Twitter or Facebook post, or even a
description for a graphic he is preparing to upload to a
website. Whatever it is, he seems to be paying it a lot of
attention, so we'd best leave him alone.
