HELLO WORLD!

Ever wondered what this ^ symbol means?

The one that sits on the Number 6 on your keyboard?

Go on have a look. Type Shift 6. There!

^

That’s the Caret. C-A-R-E-T. Pronounced like carrot. You pronounce the last ‘t’. Not Car-ray, but Caret.

Before keyboards and auto-correct, when people used pen and paper, the only way to correct a misspelt word was to draw a small caret and insert the missing letter or word between the lines. It comes from the Latin 'caret' meaning “is lacking”.

Caret.media inserts that which is lacking. We tell stories that others are not interested in telling. Or won’t. We read between the lines. We insert what others missed out on. Caret.media is the opinion of the silent. Caret.media separates fact from fiction, debunks myths and presents facts.

But we are not all serious and stuffy. We also ^^ and ^-^ and ^.^ and ^o^. Follow us, join us. Like us, love us. Send hearts. Here's to the beginnings of a great friendship. Mwaah!

Caret.media - real stories from the real world.
