According to news posted on www.justsearching.co.uk, the Chav website SavvyChavvy has won an award for the way it helps communities stay in touch.
According to them, Chavvy comes from the old Romany word, meaning Youth. The website isn’t for chavs though, it’s for gypsies, or travellers.
I always thought chav was from the phrase ‘Chelmsford Average’, meaning scum. You learn something new everyday.
The article also talks about an award for a virtual nightclub in second life, for disabled people. I’m not even going to comment on that one!
Darren Jamieson, aka MrDaz, is the Technical Director and co-founder of Engage Web and has been working online in a career spanning two decades. His first website was built in 1998 and is still live today.
