Caps Lock simply refers to the button on a computer keyboard that results in all letters of Cyrillic and Latin based scripts being generated in capital letters. If you hit the key again, the action is reversed, and everything is then typed in lowercase. A lot of keyboards today have a light on the Caps Lock button, so you know when it is switched on and off. However, there are a lot of older models that keep you honest, as the key does not have any indication as to whether it is on Caps or not. A lot of us have been there: you don’t realise you have had the Caps Lock button switched on, and you send someone a message in capital letters entirely. If you are like us, you will probably then follow up with a message such as “opps, sorry, I didn’t mean to shout.” There are some people, though, who like to use Caps Lock to get their point across. It can then cause the recipient of the message to get a little bit frustrated. It’s like being shouted at through a phone, isn’t it? Well, Caps Lock Day is a day of bliss for all of your folk out there who hate people who overuse the Caps Lock button. It’s time for a bit of visual peace and serenity.
NOTHING SAYS I'M A TOOL LIKE RESPONDING IN CAPS LOCK! THE ONLY THING WORSE IS USING RED TO HIGHLIGHT THE IMPORTANCE OF THE MESSAGE!!!
EVEN BETTER THAN USING CAPITALS IS USING BOLD AS WELL OR EVEN UNDERLINING EVERYTHING AND THEN FINISHING OFF WITH A LOAD OF EXCLAMATION MARKS!!!!!!!!!
On both laptops I have here in front of me , the Caps Lock indicator is a white LED. Which glows so brightly when the sun hits it, you cant tell if its on or off. THEN the typing gets difficult.
