PostHeaderIcon @ Geek :-)

This week’s Tech Republic newsletter had a geekalicious article I just have to share. Why? Because I am both a low level tech geek (I’d probably be wearing a red shirt, lol) and a writer-type, and this article has a bit of typographic history, too.

What do you call ” @ ” ? Does it have a name, like the ampersand (&) or what? Did you know the ” @ ” has hundreds of names, depending on the language used? Or that it pre-dates email by over 50 years? Learn all this and more Where the action is @ !
