Blogger in Draft: Introducing Google Scribe in Blogger

I turned off Chrome's prediction service once I found myself relying upon it—it was becoming difficult for me to perform searches on DuckDuckGo without it! Google was making my mind dishearteningly lethargic.

For decades, affluent humans have gone out of their way to work physically harder than they need to (weight lifting, running, standing rather than sitting, etc.). Our technology is rapidly approaching a level that'll force people not to use it in order to stay mentally fit!

This is really cool technology, but I really don't want to rely on Google's engineers to tell me which words to write next.

For a language I know well, this is not appealing, but it could be very useful at the level of (non-native) language proficiency where I can write well enough to make my meaning clear, but can't avoid sounding stilted.

We'll tell you what to write. Don't worry your pretty little head.

I wish they had chosen a different name. I develop ScribeFire (a blogging client that is compatible with Blogger, among many others), and this is undoubtedly going to increase my workload as confused users email questions to me regarding Scribe.
