Author Topic: Capitalizing every single word: What happened here? (Read 2043 times)

How does this happen? People do it all the time, and I can't help but wonder, doesn't it take more effort to press down the shift key before every word than to just do it when necessary? People say it became a habit, but how does such a thing start? Some people say they even learned how to type that way and it makes me think about how odd that is.

Can I get some explanations from people who've done this, or are even doing it now? Maybe just a few guesses from people who don't?

I think it might be cause some people type on an iPod touch and/or iPhone.

I dunno though.

Over correction, Just like in driving, If you over-correct yourself too much, you crash. I also have a habit of doing this. I mostly Capatalize the big words in fear that I might not capitalize one I need to. OCD

Capatalize

Solutions: Type slower. Look over your messages/posts before you send/post them. I preview every single post I make and read it over once or twice to make sure I did it right.
