| Jane Chin | asks | the "net" or the "web"? Which do you use when talking about online? - (and why?) |
| DS♥ | web or inter-web |
| DebInAustin | says | web |
| JustJen | net |
| JohnnyRokkit | says | web or interwebs |
| JohnnyRokkit | says | also very common here, "digital". |
| Kellye_Crane | thinks | in business conversations many people still say Internet spelled out. As in "I found this on the Internet" or "Internet sales are up." |
| Starman1 | says | net |
| SandyBBerry | says | web, probably because the net reminds me of that Sandra Bullock movie. |
| DaisyΜ∞n | says | I say "online" or "internet"- and I think it's b/c I had to be specific about things to people who don't keep up with technology and times |
| Cudd | says | the net, web sounds like I'm talking about spiders which creeps me out |
| jaheed | says | Web... More like Web 2.0 given most folks I deal with are strategist and influencers |
| Nexeus | says | the both are really interchangeable for me... web development, the net, only when am I talking about web 2.0 am I only using web |
| Jane Chin | says | i find myself using 'net and web interchangeably but perhaps i should pick one. |
| menstrualpoetry | uses 'online' or 'the internets.' |
| LivSimpl.com | says | Web. "Net" seems so 1998. |
| Jane Chin | veronicaromm can you explain the context? |
| btocher | says | the net. The web is only one part of the net; there are several others. |
| btocher | says | for example usenet, telnet, IRC - none of these are anything to do with the web. |
| Neal Jansons | says | both |
| ethnicomm | says | had the same dilemma regarding my biz card - web strategy, online strategy, net strategy? went with web |
| Ginkgo | says | either "web" or "Internet" bc I mainly only use the WWW part of the Internet... I remember using FTP and I still occasionally use IRC though |
| gwfrink3 | says | depends entirely on what I'm talking about. U can't be a gear head and fail to make the precise distinctions. Discredits u (you, too). |
| Ginkgo | doesn't even use POP3 e-mail, it's all about the gmail baby! |
| Jane Chin | i love gmail  |
