Hyperobjects Liveblog 3

I've made a decision to write the book as one huge word file. I've never done this before. But I reckon the only reason why is habit.

It suddenly seems much better to do it this way. The book will be a whole from the start. No cobbling.

I think the only reason I didn't do it this way before was anxiety about memory, left over from the days of Quadras and so on. There is no good reason why my machine can't handle a single file about 1mb large, which is roughly how big a book is, I find.

This one will probably be about 70 000 words or so, so I can visualize it as somewhere between a DVD and a VHS video in width...
