I confess I still double space between sentences!

When did this rule change and why don’t I have any desire to stop?

  1. Ha! I didn't learn about that rule until about a year ago, and now it's changed back to just one space. Who knows nowadays. They change grammar rules so much, who can keep track?

  2. My friend, who was an english/editing major said it's because the reason it was there in the first place was for typewriters. Since typewriters aren't really used anymore, the rule is no longer necessary.
