Keyboarding? I'm sorry, I just get a picture of a 80's tech-rock-punk guy dressed in a bad suit surfing on an electric keyboard.
Personally, I can't see anything in this article that doesn't make me feel anything but stupider than having read it.
Seriously, this is the private-sector equivalent of running a study to find out that running studies costs money.
Step 1: Find an aspect of society that has seen technolgical advancements that have led to societal changes.
Step 2: Ask if the lower tech form is still better than the current form (quick hint, if the new form survies then it must have at least 1 signficant advantage - so there will always be a strong arguement for 'yes')
Step 3: Report Duh! facts that everyone understands and wouldn't shock anyone who didn't conciously think about it as if they are groundbreaking.

If the author wants to replace "the pen is mightier than the sword" with "the keyboard is more 1337 than the nuke", fine.
But jeez, way to mangle the entire concept behind the 'pen' in the quoation.
