Question
Yesterday I asked if writing the counting of the Omer in text. I wanted to know if there is a difference between actual writing or on a computer regarding the counting.
Answer
Hello,
There is no difference between writing the counting of the Omer in regular writing and writing on a computer or in a text message.
In both cases, the writing is not considered as counting, but it is beneficial in that it allows one to continue counting the remaining days with a blessing.
