A few days before the input method war broke out, I installed the Google Pinyin input method. Previously, I used many input methods, such as smart ABC, Ziguang, Pinyin plus, and Microsoft pinyin. Google was installed with an early adopters. In addition, it was also a big company's product (language from Ark). In the end, the copying was better, and naturally there were more expectations.
In a subsequent blog, I typed "zhouhongyi" with little hope. The results were amazing and I hit it all at once. The first thing after writing a blog is to set the Google input method as the default input method, and say goodbye to the poor pinyin that has been used for a long time. At that time, I felt good and the user experience was great.
Just a few days later, the input method war began in full swing. Of course, public opinion was one-sided, and Google was condemned to be shameless and indecent. Some people began to worry about Lee Kai-fu's future. Some friends also gave up the Google input method and switched to sogou pinyin. Seeing such a scene, you can't help but be a bit dumb. This situation is not uncommon in China, even in foreign companies. In some cases, plagiarism can be used as a reference, and it can also be taken for granted. It is not because we do not have the awareness of copyright, but because pirated things are easy to use, so that we can find shortcuts at work.
I still use my Google input method, and I installed sogou pinyin on another computer (this article was completed by sogou). I am not very interested in the verbal war. I only care about the more useful input method.
