Avoid All Caps
Tell me, which of these two paragraphs is easier to read?
JOURNALISM ON THE OTHER HAND OPENS UP TO A LOT OF OPPORTUNITIES EVEN AT FIRST GLANCE. ANYWAY, ANY FORM OF WRITING DEGREE CAN LEAD TO DIFFERENT JOBS AND CAREERS AND THE POSSIBILITIES OF GROWTH ARE TRULY ENDLESS.

Journalism on the other hand opens up to a lot of opportunities even at first glance. Anyway, any form of writing degree can lead to different jobs and careers and the possibilities of growth are truly endless.
The second one, right? A paragraph written in all caps makes the reader’s mind wary. It slows the mind in reading it as we are not used to reading letters that way. This is especially true if we are talking about paragraph after paragraph in all caps.
The point here is to lessen the use of all caps in any writing, be it online or not. Your reader will surely thank you for that.
You know what? I can’t believe that someone just sent me an email in ALL CAPS! Before I finally lose my patience, I just sent the email to trash.
I have yet to see a blogger who will write a post in ALL CAPS though!
Have a great day!
