In Danger of Becoming an Arachnerd
A fun article in yesterday's SearchDay talks about internet neologisms, like google as a verb. The article refers to a glossary of these neologisms, put together by Paul McFedries. His Tech Word Spy web site is a lexicon of technical terms, many of which came from the books he's written. If you're a fan of language, it's a fun and fascinating site to engage in what McFedries calls "lexpionage."That's where I found out that I'm in danger of becoming an arachnerd, someone who spends too much time surfing the web or fussing with her home page.
