If you aren’t following us on Facebook, you might not know that we have been posting some great projects from back in the day. It happens every Thursday, and it’s been a lot of fun. It’s even garnered emails from former employees who remember when.
Our most recent Throwback Thursday highlighted a newsletter PI put out back in the fall of 2000. I got a big kick out of the article “What’s all the .com motion?” that quotes Terry as saying, “At PRO iNK we have been involved with the Internet for the past two years.” Notice her use of the capitalized “Internet.”
Just for the record, AP style is as follows: internet, email, website. And for goodness sake, you don’t need to say “World Wide Web.” Internet works just fine (lower case, that is).
And while I’m on the subject, my new favorite Twitter feed isĀ @APStylebook. (I bet none of us could have conceived of a Twitter feed back in 2000. We were too busy building Web sites in frames!)
