  3. About Bandwidth

    Easily one of the most annoying buzzwords, bandwidth is a great example of corrupting a perfectly acceptable word by giving it a new definition so that anyone using it sounds cooler than they really are. Traditionally, bandwidth referred to the amount of data that a transmission line could carry, but it also came to mean the amount of time, capability, and resources that a group or individual has available. "Hey, John, do you have the bandwidth to work on the site today?" may sound OK to some, but why they can't just stick with "Hey, John, can you get this done today?" is beyond us.
