Write normally, the manual said, as if you did not have an electric pen in your hand, a motor on its top and a sharp needle at the tip.
Now that you write or draw as normally as possible, your vibrating pen punches the paper 50 times every second. Through these tiny holes, ink will then flow in the press, creating up to 5,000 copies of the original document.
Edison's electric pen is a marvel; you don't need one, though, or write much to press Google Buzz for copies of your (or others') public writing:
