A Brief History of This “Holiday”

But where did this quirky celebration come from? Well, the story goes that International Caps Lock Day was the brainchild of Derek Arnold, a software developer who was, shall we say, less than thrilled with the overuse of caps lock in online communication. In 2000, he decided to create a day to poke fun at this “typographical convention” and remind people that typing in all caps is generally considered the digital equivalent of shouting.
