TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Recently a colleague reviewed our newsletter in which
we encourage readers to "Review our website." This has
opened a discussion in my department about the proper
way to distinguish the "Web" vs "web".
My comment was that Web is short for the World Wide
Web and web is the correct way to describe an HTML (or
other programming language) site that is viewable
online.
I have searched many online dictionaries and
encyclopedias without finding a clear distinction
between the two.
Please offer any suggestions,
Kristyna Knoblauch
