Construction
There are several reasons to create typecasting blogs. For writers who prefer the use of typewriters to write text manually it remains the best way to post electronic copies of their original text. These texts or portions of texts may include unedited text, handwritten edits, notes or signs of proofreading that allow the reader to see the raw text complete with typos, errors and corrections. Typecasting may appeal to fans of or collectors of typewriters and some typecasters employ the use of several different machines or styles of machines to create their posts. Some typecasters are writers who dislike word processors or who reject computers use as a writing tools even if they use them for revisions. Other typecasters pay tribute to manual forms of writing and like the appeal of typecasting, including writers "...who like the sound of a typewriter bell at the end of a sentence". Lastly, many people that typecast do so in order to preserve typewriting as a means of creating texts, a means of remembering a vanishing skill or as a form of manual communication.
Typecast blogs may be posted on individual domains, typecast blogs on blogging services such as Blogger that were designed primarily for electronically entered text content, and sketchblogs or image specific blogging services.

Famous quotes containing the word construction:
“There is, I think, no point in the philosophy of progressive education which is sounder than its emphasis upon the importance of the participation of the learner in the formation of the purposes which direct his activities in the learning process, just as there is no defect in traditional education greater than its failure to secure the active cooperation of the pupil in construction of the purposes involved in his studying.”
—John Dewey (1859–1952)
“When the leaders choose to make themselves bidders at an auction of popularity, their talents, in the construction of the state, will be of no service. They will become flatterers instead of legislators; the instruments, not the guides, of the people.”
—Edmund Burke (1729–1797)
“There’s no art
To find the mind’s construction in the face:
He was a gentleman on whom I built
An absolute trust.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
