Plain English Campaign wants to bring down walls of technobabble, rule the world

Turns out someone guy wants to abolish technobabble.

Peter Griffiths, [...] is hoping that his Plain English Campaign can knock down the “walls of techobabble” by “pulling our heads out of the digital clouds and using plain English.” Ironic, really, given that most of the technologically illiterate wouldn’t know that a digital cloud actually refers to an off-site storage hub where information is exchanged.

Come on… Seriously?? Listen, learning words like dongle, WAP and firewire are not really that hard.
