Some words on italki's note input column and losing scripts I mean the column for users to input words. I just wrote hundred words yesterday about a grammar issue but my computer encountered some problems and I restarted it. Then I remembered that I hadn't finished my composition and left it half way, and italki don't have a auto save function, just like many websites would do. So I lost my draft. It's not that easy to write some thing day by day. And I don't want to keep it just like a diary, a diary writes did and ate. This column limits to 2500 letters only, and that's about 500 hundred words in English. But surprisingly 2500 letters' length support up to around 1200 characters' Chinese, which conveys somewhat more information than English. And the title column limits up to 60 letters. It's relatively long and 60 letters may show as three lines. To write words in Word or WPS, ctrl+c+v following, maybe a good choice. But it makes things complicated. I tried to write long words, like story and notes, in Word files. But the step to open that software just kept me out for it's unnecessary and boring. Ya I'm lazy but there must be a reason, and I could shirk off the responsibility upon it. Losing manuscripts seem usual for a writer, what kind of things he writes, but it surely can be avoided. WPS, the Word in Chinese language although not that good functional, has the auto save ability, as well as Qidian's column for writers. Qidian is a website for readers to read long novels online and for writers to write long novels online and free. And I think, I could just think because I don't usually do, the blog providers and communication apps, whatever the name of the kind is, like twitter and facebook surely support auto save. It takes me 20 to 40 minutes to write a this-kind-of essay. For more information and thoughts provided ones it takes more indeed. And I don't usually shut down my computers and don't suffer cut of electricity very often. So maybe it is acceptable when losing scripts happen? I hope better not. It's true interesting to have the experience of losing scripts sometimes. I've read many writers autobiographies and knew that many of them have experienced it. Losing chapters and even whole book in that years before when the computer was popular. Many writers in China talks about this problem and they have some their own solutions, from auto save WPS to chapter-ial manual saves, from priced specialized software to just give up writing.
