The Internet is going the way of the Weblog, the Electronic Message and the World Wide Web.

The New York Times announced on Tuesday that it would join The Associated Press in lowercasing the name of the global network that lives in our pockets and in front of our faces, keeping us pinned to various feeds like caged mice pressing the button that summons another hit of sugar water.

The changes will take effect at both news outlets on June 1 (which explains the incongruity of “Internet” being capitalized throughout this article).

Jill Taylor, who manages the copy desks at The Times, announced the change in a memo to the newsroom, acknowledging, “It will probably take a while to get shift-I out of our muscle memory.”

The Times’s decision comes after an announcement by The A.P. in a tweet in early April during the 2016 conference of the American Copy Editors Society, the annual event where the “grammar geeks, punctuation freaks and syntax-obsessed snobs” (as its website says) drill their fellow editors on the latest rules governing American journalese.
