When I was doing my Computer Science degree our lectures used to make a big deal about making sure you spell Internet with a capital ‘I’, because it’s important and it’s the name of a thing. Apparently it’s now been decided that it should be spelt with a lowercase ‘i’, I wish bloody linguists would make their minds up!
