This.
It also depends on your site's target audience. For a programming site or other I.T technical site it properly wouldn't matter.
For others, as recent as 2014 i still witness the following.
A: What was the site address ?
B: something.com
A: OK. [Start typing www.something.com ]
For the majority, i.e those who dont know HN, and dont know jack about computers, WWW means website. While in recent years this is much less of a problem because Google has become our gateway to Internet and Apps taking over, WWW is still ingrained into their mindset.
