It's just the internet now...????
The things people spend time debating never cease to amaze.
Apparently the people at Wired have decided that INTERNET doesn't deserve to be capitalized. It's just internet.
I heard about this debacle on WTOP this weekend. It was the only radio station I could get driving thru western Virginia (not West Virginia!!! Keep in mind, people, the two are editorially different).
Now I'm just as anally retentive as the next guy about punctuation and capitalization and whatnot but what gives??? What does it matter if its Internet or internet? Tech geeks don't capitalize anything anyway.
What's next??? A debate over the difference between god and God???? I stand corrected.
The internet IS God.
