I really enjoyed this! Very interesting! I particularly loved the fact that song countries have no need for spelling tests!
A highly fascinating and enjoyable read, well suited to linguists and non-linguists alike!

Listen, I've always been pretty easy for a good pop-sci book, but a book that gets me in the mood to discuss the Internet with my mother is a special one.

A superb and readable exploration of the use of language on the internet. Though the internet itself does shape and change our use of language in any number of interesting ways, what is more remarkable about the internet is the way it preserves informal language on a scale never before seen. People aren’t writing worse because of the internet. They are for the first time writing the informal language that once only existed as ephemeral sound waves.
