@larwe Yes, ‘login’ is a valid noun. It’s not a valid verb. A button indicates an action. Hence the label should be ‘Log in’. +@Grooveshark

@larwe Yep, as two words, not one, as I stated in my original tweet: http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/log%20in … +@Grooveshark -
@aral@larwe@Grooveshark you guys will be happy to know that we're changing it to "Sign In", though I'm in favor of "Login" -
@jameshartig Good call :) +@larwe@Grooveshark -
@aral@larwe@Grooveshark alternatively, "Take Off" (sign up), "Engage", "Disengage" and "Refuel" (forgot pw) were proposed.

@aral but Login is akin to web site and website. It was once web site but has evolved to website -
@amberweinberg Nope, it’s not :) Read what I wrote earlier about nouns vs. verbs.

@aral As a noun, Login is valid. Accompanied by credentials input, Log In is correct. Without these, I think Login is still valid. -
@hhariri Yes ‘login’ is valid as a noun (your login) and as an adjective (e.g., ‘login button’) however a button denotes an action… - 1 more reply

@aral@Grooveshark@Ren can't we all just agree to adopt login -
@justinsreed Not if you want to be grammatically correct :) +@Grooveshark@Ren -
@aral@Grooveshark@Ren I'm saying let's change the definition of what's correct to accept login too
