Graffiti 'Writing' App Available to Android Users, Seasoned Geeks Reminisce

by Matt Evans on July 19, 2010 at 08:30 AM

Graffiti on AndroidBack in the '90s, when the Palm operating system was at the core of any good PDA, the stylus was a sign of status, ready to be unsheathed in crucial moments minutes of business. Assuming your habitual geekdom hasn't subsided since those days, and you're running Android, then you're in store for a serious bit of nostalgic goodness.

Last week, Access released 'Graffiti,' the stylus text-entry system loved by Palm Pilot Users back in the day. With 'Graffiti,' available via Android's Market, text is entered by drawing a path with your finger (unless you still have a spare stylus lying around). The re-release of this software as an app is more novel than it is useful, and is completely futile if you're looking to speedily shoot off texts. Scribble on.

I'm, like, okay with being a little crazy.

The time, energy, words, weight lost, nails bitten, scabs picked and nights I've struggled thru for this are easy to judge from afar, right?
