I am making a note to myself to spell WordPress right, that is, with a capital P. I have been conscious about this for some time, but it has always been pushed back by zeal to get rest of the content right. WordPress is one word with a capital W and a capital P. I have been referring to it as Wordpress (this is for the last time). There is significance to the structure of a name, especially of a product, and as users we should respect that. As Lorelle mentions
Spell it right: It is spelled WordPress, not Wordpress, wordpress, WP, wordpres, wordprez, wrodpress, or word press. It’s a Plugin, not a plug-in.
There is even a plugin available, but I will make sure I do it right manually. It is not only on this blog, but wherever we use it, it should be used as WordPress.

OH, thank you for bringing this uP. It really Proves that someone is PayIng attention to the little deTails that help get a Word found, especially when it applies to wrod prez.
I tell people that a Plugin is an add-on for a WordPress blog, and a plug-in powers your computer from the wall.

Haha, good one. Matt & Co. are lenient in not forcing everyone to follow it, but names should be referred to as they are.

Some of just can’t help but notice the finer details.
