Technology Terms Amongst New Words for 2006

Posted By Gina Hamm

Merriam-Webster online has announced a list of new words for 2006 to be added to the popular dictionary. Technology and computer words are at the top of the list with “mouse potato”, “ringtone” and “spyware”. That’s three less words to tie up my spell checker.

Everyone has noticed computer and Internet words being used as a part of our daily language. These days, you don’t “debrief” from a meeting, you “download.” This is just another example of how we continue to reinvent our language and communication as our culture (and technology) evolves.

At Zunch, we see new terms coined daily. In the SEO world, keeping up with the latest trends is a challenge that keeps us on our toes. It takes a special person to envelope themselves into the technology. We’re passionate about what we do and strive to do it better every day.

We should start a "Zunchionary." More on that later...
