Social Media It's Not in the London Dictionary!
20/08/2010'Social Media' It's Not in the London Dictionary!
No, it's not the London Dictionary, but the Oxford one, 'Social Media' has made it into the Oxford Dictionary, along with 'Interweb' & 'Defriend'.
I always thought Interweb was the word my mum used because she kept confusing it with the word 'Internet'! Perhaps that's why it only joined the dictionary 20 years after it appeared as an alternative way of saying 'Internet'.
Oxford English Dictionary (not the London one!) analyses over two billion words used in online or printed media which is why the words selected are a snapshot of the world we live in.
Notting Hill, London, Carnival - I can't wait
I am looking forward to travelling up to London in a couple of weeks on the Southend to London express! I have not been to the Notting Hill Carnival before and am looking forward to taking my children and joining some of our family for a fun packed day!
I will be taking my camera with me, soaking up the atmosphere and will enjoy the London scenery. I will probably be going past the London office, on the London Underground and maybe try out one of those new London pay as you go bike.. all in all, its gonna be a London themed day!
