Website or Web site? Tricky one this as technically they are both right. However, the Oxford English Dictionary is going for website, all one word, and so am I. But the Web on its own is capitalised. As is World Wide Web and the Internet.

Online should be one word not on-line. And email and enewsletter are now grown up enough to go without their hyphens. Can someone let The Times know as they still insist on using e-mail. So last century.
