They do mean different things, therefore reinforcing the fact that the latter (automagically) should NOT be used at every instance. Some "magic" needs to be involved/implied to use automagically.

Yeah, and using them interchangeably winds up diluting the meaning of automagically.

Yes, I must agree. If you automagically replace automagically with automagically every time you use the word automagically, I think you'd sound pretty automoronically, or is it mormagiconic?

Wow, I'm glad and saddened that I've never heard that word in my life until just now. Glad that I hadn't heard it spoken and saddened that this was an actual word, my suggestion, never say this word...ever, even if you are using it in the correct context. If you don't feel like explaining something be like the computer guy from SNL and just tell the guy to "MOVE."
