camelcase

Ah, that's okay. I needed new eyeglasses anyway. :-)

So wait... is CamelCase only capitalizing the first letter of each word? I thought it was capitalizing every other letter. Hmm.

Edit: Wikipedia says it's the former. Guess I was mistaken. Sorry for hurting your eyes, reesetee. So does tHiS have a name (besides obnoxious)?

New Scientist has an article on CamelCase (oh, the irony that Wordie only permits lower-case listings) that notes its original usefulness in making programming terms readable and mentions two derivatives: UpperCamelCase and lowerCamelCase. It also discusses how it's made the transition to web brandnames as a way of avoiding spaces ... and ends on a sinister note by suggesting another programming convention that might be the next to break_free and irritate the_world_at_large.

Got that right. *rubbing eyes*
