The Day,which appeared in 2000,was created by Derek Arnold,who says it is not meant to be “deep” at all.He said,“Not everything’s an issue.”
October 22 is the original (最初的) celebratory date,but June 28 was added as a secondary one in memory of Billy Mays who was well-known on social and marketing websites.
Arnold manages the International Caps Lock Day website,which is pretty inactive,and contains mostly graphics (图样).It is not an interesting site at all,but it serves its purpose,if one wants to get an idea of the “fun” nature of the holiday.
Hundreds of messages are received on International Caps Lock Day,for example,“I CAN’T ENTER MY MAILBOX BECAUSE MY PASSWORD(密码) IS WRONG.BECAUSE I’M NOT TURNING OFF CAPS LOCK.HOWEVER,I STILL WELCOME AND WANT TO CELEBRATE THE DAY.”
Using the caps lock button when writing on the web is normally considered to be shouting,annoying and rude,however on these two days of the year this practice of using ALL CAPS appears to be accepted.
