Proving the power of viral video, I was sent a video the other day of an old Jay Leno show – where morse code sending was placed head-to-head against (speed) texting!Now you may have seen this video before, in which case you are not going to find this post very interesting – but, if you haven’t, read on!
So as I was saying, on a Jay Leno show, two people who could send and receive morse code were put up against a texter sending a message to his friend. Suffice to say the morse code gave the texters a sound whipping! In fact, the speed of morse is quite frightening!
If you want to check out the video (which is great), there’s one on YouTube here.
If nothing else, this proves that sometimes the Older contingent of the population have still got it – either that or a nasty twitch in the hand

About The Author
Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
