Summary | The Associated Press' writing style board have decided to spell "internet" with a lowecase i. The word had been capitalized before, no one really knows why since it is not a brand name. Some speculate that "Internet" was capitalized because it was seen as so special and specific, like a physical place with a name. Now, however, the internet has become part of everyday life. Younger generations could not imagine a world without it. ''For younger people, it's always been there; it's like water.''
