Do we say "NOUGHT or Oh"?
During the last IP-lecture about "Zoekmachinaties / "SearchMachination" there was short and not conclusive discussion about how to pronounce Web or Library 2.0.
According to the typical british Simon Lande it should be "TwoPointNOUGHT". In fact that was the only way he ever heard it, if I remember correctly.
What I suspected that day was confirmed yesterday while listening to a group Americans in an OPAL session. It must be a UK versus US-english thingy.
I cleary heard Michael Stephens say it numerous times: Web TWOPoint OHHoe.
So if you are planning on presenting about this, make your pick -;)
