     My rule of thumb is to write it as one word if it's being used
as a noun, and two words if a verb (phrase).  Thus I "log in", while
the act of doing so is a "login".

     Over the past few years I've noticed that people are running
words together more and more.  I find this silly, irritating, or
misleading, depending on the state of my liver.  Maybe it's due to
influence from the German language, where it is standard to string
words together to produce some truly incredible compound words.
