Use proper capital letters and sentence case when submitting posts
TECians,Many of you are not using the proper sentence case and not making the correct use of a capital letter. Note this list and submit posts properly, whether in an article, an Ask Expert query or answer or a Forum response:
Windows and not windows (you are referring to a software and not part of a house)
Google and not google (it is a company name so requires the first letter to be in capitals)
Microsoft and not microsoft (also a company name)
Apple and not apple (when you are not referring to the fruit, but the company)
Blackberry and not blackberry (it is a brand)
Android and not android (it is an OS so the first letter should be in capitals)
Note also these:
install and not Install (it should be in small case and first letter should be in capitals only if at the start of a sentence)
smartphone and not smart phone (one word, not two separate words)
iPhone / iPad (the 'p' should always be in a capital letter when referring to Apple products)
All these are little things, but nevertheless important. After all, ours is a technology-related site and we must get our words & names right in every way.
