In the run up to Valentines Day this Saturday, we were astonished to see a report from The Telegraph citing a survey that suggests technology is killing off romance.
Conducted by the National Trust, the results maintain that a shockingly low one in five of us have ever written a love poem or letter, preferring to send a quick text instead.
That may be true of traditional pen and paper, but we think technology is in fact allowing romance to flourish, and we're not the only ones. There's many ways to send sweet nothings, without using some parchment and the postman.
We can use short and sweet texts and Tweets; long emails bursting with poetic sentiment; private blog posts dedicated to the object of our affection... the list goes on. And of course, we can all pick up the phone and tell someone we think they're wonderful in an instant.
Now if that isn't giving romance a helping hand, we don't know what is. So which method will you be employing to send a heartfelt message this Valentine's Day?
