Every time I read the name "danah boyd" it is followed by some annoying disclaimer about how, no, really, it's not a typo or error in printing, that IS how she spells her name. All lower case. Really. The collective cost of lost productivity to our civilization is, truly, incalculable. I move that danah boyd begin capitalizing her name, and save us these endless, tedious spelling disclaimers. Is staying all lower case *really* worth the time it takes to explain this to everyone, for the umpteenth million time
