survey time: should i capitalize or not?

as you have noticed, all of my writing has been lower case. i rarely capitalized unless the occasion calls for it. i’ve been hearing that capitalizing the beginning of sentences makes it easier to read. so i’m going to leave this big change up to you guys.

i want all of you to answer: should i capitalize or not?

that decision will be made by your consensus. i mean, ultimately, this blog is for you…my readers..my friends.
=)
love,
vanae

Hello, this is the first time I read your blog (I love your vids on YouTube). Anywayz, I take that you mean capitalize the first letter of each sentence? Yea, you should do that. Keep up the good work!

I would say it’s a good idea, though it wouldn’t be a big deal if you remained writing as you have.

I really think you should leave it as is. It’s what gives your blog a certain flair, or feel to it. It would be like having plastic surgery done, ya it might look better, but it takes away from who you really are.

Leave it as is, please.

Hey Vanae,
I think that you should capitalize your letters.Even if it is an informal message. I’ve gotten dog out by some of my lady friend for being too casual….Ciao!

an issue dear to my heart. for the purposes of communication i think capitalization is a complete waste of time. spend that extra effort on other elements that affect readability. font, text size, color vs. background color…y’know stuff that matters.

The BOTTOM line is, opinions are like @$$holes. Everybody has one, can’t wait to share it, and
most who do have diarrhea or constipation and shoud’nt.

SO YOU DO YOU, BOO! As we so crudely used to say in the hood, you’re “THE SHIT”! Okay? Your real crew is true blue whatever you do.

People don’t come to yout site to see the “way” you write, but “what” is written is the most important. From grade schoolers to grad school, yes the normal/formal world does use a capital letter to standardize the beginning of a sentence.

But and yes I used the word “but” to start a sentence. {tangent} But if, it helps you get out the words that you want to say, then let be said in whatever way that gets the job done.

Thanks to your B- to V-logs, because it really does inspire people.

Please capitalize sentences and contribute positively to the blogosphere. Your ideas are vivid and punctual and can be at times refreshing between other mundane blogs. It may even inspire me to update my blog and write some more.

Yes,I think you should capitalize.It looks better and it’s the correct form of a sentence.Also, you can start doing that from now on, I mean don’t modify anything from the oldest topics, but if you make this change maybe others will too.And that’s good! =)

As long as people can read what you write without too much trouble, I think you can write the way you like. Capitalization can make sentences easier to read, just like periods can, but you decided to use periods, right? ;)

I think it’s fine.
