The C|net / news.com hosted esoterica blog has decided to make a foray into one of the longest standing debates in the history of computing. Hold on to your hats people, and get ready to hotly contest whether it is GIF with a hard G or JIF with a soft G. You be the judge, you decide, the public awaits your professional opinion.

The inventor says "JIF" ... which happens to be the way I was taught to pronounce it when the format was first gaining popularity.
I've said it that way ever since, but there have always been plenty of people to argue with me about it. Now, whenever someone argues with me, I convert the image to a .png and tell them to forget about it and that "there is no spoon.
