Modern technology has given us a whole new way of speaking. A writer for The Guardian out of the U.K. has named the best words the Internet has given the English language. Here they are:
- avatar: a user’s alter ego or graphical representation of the user
- hashtag: the pound sign that serves as a way to search by subject on Twitter
- spam: junk mail
- lol: short for ‘laughing out loud’
