The reason for the spacing in the words for English is due to the morphology of language. Morphology is basically the prefixes, suffixes, roots, and so forth. Each word has a separate meaning due to the morphology, structure, and formation of the word itself. That was the way that it was developed from when English first developed. If there wasn't spacing, there would be no distinction in meaning of the various words.

Umm...
Well, aside from being more difficult to read initially, one reason why we don't use that system is because our current system uses capital letters to designate importance, as in capitalized names and places. Unless there was a provision for that in your new system, it would actually be less communicative because some information would be lost, or less efficient because you would have to include more information such as "JohnNameIsInOaklandPlaceCaliforniaPlace" which actually added 14 more letters for a difference of ten more characters than just using spaces.
So yeah, bad idea. Keep trying though...

more difficult to read, i myself have to mentally see the words you wrote together in my head before i can comprehend it. My mind wants to seperate the words naturally. Just think of other languages that use symbols and/or go from left to right or top to bottom.

maybe if we learned to read like that from the start it MIGHT work, but right now the voice that reads that in my head when i look like it sounds like a robot. sometimes you need capital letters like to differentiate between earth (dirt) and Earth (planet).

Capital letters have their own functions.

I think it is a retarted idea. That's almost impossible to read! It doesn't save much server space either. You have weird dreams.
