About the Author:
Tom Chatfield is the author of four previous books of non-fiction exploring digital culture. Tom is also a fortnightly columnist for the BBC, a TED veteran, international speaker and broadcaster, and has worked with some of the world's leading technology firms. He took a doctorate and taught at St John's College, Oxford, before moving to write in London.
From the Inside Flap:
Netymology weaves together stories, etymologies and analyses of digital culture's transformation, and creation, of words. The 21st century is a hyper-textual arena, and Tom Chatfield celebrates its richness with a kaleidoscopic, thought-provoking tour through the buried roots of some of the digital age's most common terms. From the @ and Apple symbols, to HTML and Trojan horses, to the fascinating histories behind new forms of slang, memes, text messages and gaming terms. New things have always required new words, and Netymology is a language lover's look at our digital world.
