Democracy Comes To Punctuation City. Exclamation?
Remember when typing was done by qualified professionals? Remember when writing was a skillset only few got paid for? Remember when dinosaurs roamed the earth?
You might find this surprising -I did- but it was the folks who were in charge of printing books, i.e. Printers; who decided which punctuation mark went where.
Today, all of us are Printers. We can print our own books, emails, tweets, blog posts, etc. So effectively, we are becoming the elite that determines the future of punctuation marks.
Is there more to it? Does the power shift from the few to many create a chaos? And how will the written language evolve because of it?
