write Internet properly?
 
In order to write the word Internet properly, is the I in Internet suppose to be capitalized?

Nope, I looked it up at dictionary.com and none of their defenitions were capitalized.

LordZpider 2002-12-11 07:17 PM

dictionary.com also saids that iv is a legal word for literati... my microsoft word says that it's not legal...

what would make you think it had to be capitilized?
just alot of programs that involve the internet start with a captial to seem more profession
Internet Explorer.

Microsoft word says Internet needs the capital. Who to believe??

Gsus 2002-12-11 11:20 PM

i know www needs all caps...(World Wide Web)...and the internet is the World Wide Web....so maybe

well, I guess it depends on how your using it. If your saying something like "I'm gonna go on the Internet" then I guess it should be, but if your saying "i need an internet program" then I guess it shouldnt be. :D

No its called Internet Explorer and not internet explorer, because its a name, which makes it proper to use capital letters.
