Google Wants to Take Your Caps Lock Away [Blockquote]

It looks as if Google is pulling a Steve Jobs with Chrome: They will eliminate the Caps Lock key from your entire notebooks made for that operating system. Why? Because they know better and we are all idiots.

According to Google, this may improve the quality of the comments, because people won’t be able to jot down all in capital letters. I’m not keen on the caps lock key myself. I never use it, so it could possibly go to hell, for all I’m concerned. But getting rid of choice from people is not very good, especially when it truly is not likely to improve the quality of comments.

FIRST, PEOPLE WOULD STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO WRITE AS MUCH AS THEY WISH IN CAPITAL LETTERS. SEE, MY LEFT PINKY DID THAT, NOT THE CAP LOCKS.

then, people can be ready to write all without using any caps at all, which i find just as annoying as writing all in caps. maybe the next move is to enforce proper capitalization for all text fields. and is google also going to forbid the unnecessary repetition of exclamation and interrogation marks!!!!!!?????

At the tip, improving the quality of comments doesn’t rely upon the caps lock key. Folks who virtually rise their voices and insult on the net will continue to achieve this. What really improves the quality is moderation and, ultimately, education. [ SAI ]
