Electronic Shorthand

Book excerpt: If you can never find a pen but always have an electronic device, Electronic Shorthand might be for you! If you need to take notes for study, business, hobbies, or memory problems, Electronic Shorthand could be the answer to your problems. It's a quick and easy-to-learn method of taking notes on an electronic device - a smartphone, tablet, or computer. Unlike traditional shorthand, it doesn't involve learning a whole new language, it's similar to 'texting' but with a few simple rules. It will enable you to take extensive notes, quickly and easily, and have them available anywhere in the cloud - without having to transcribe them or type them up afterwards. This is ideal for students and anyone who studies online or off. It's also great for reporters - you don't need to invest years into learning Pitman or Gregg or Teeline, and you won't need to worry about storing your notebooks or bits of paper. Business people love this method for taking down client briefs, networking/conference notes, and for organizing their lives. Electronic Shorthand could save you hassle, stress, and confusion.
