Why should anyone feel ashamed? Many people refer to "the internet" as "the web" or even "the www". I know it's not necessary to type "www" (like http, ftp, other protocols etc.), but a lot of people learned (and others teach them) a webpage should always start with "www". I've noticed you're only using http://, without www, a while ago. You even redirect traffic when they enter using www. It might be a some kind of useless little DNS prefix, but why make such a big deal out of it? Oh, my website works with both by the way. I don’t really get it. Why should anyone feel ashamed?

(www.ucas.co.uk), it's the single most important site for uni people. Massive fail, because ucas.com works!
