Whiteboards vs. Blackboards

[artdutra04]

Blackboard. Period.

I may love technology, but I also love a ton of "old school" ideas. I've always loved analog watches and clocks, I love watching steam powered railroad locomotives, my favorite video game is Pacman, "classic" rock still rocks, and somehow I've always preferred blackboards. There is something about blackboards, a certain amount of resistance that the chalk offers while writing, that makes writing on them just seem more concrete, in the same sense that reading something from a newspaper or book has always seemed more concrete than reading it off the Internet.
