Hey when I post my blogs, I try to use spell check but it doesn't do anything, it won't work?? I am sick of finding mistakes once I post a blog. Does it work for anyone else???
I never use spell check, but I just checked it to see if it works and it works fine. It will even try to capitalize words that you left lowercase. It is a pop-up window, so you will have to make sure that you allow pop-ups for www.blogger.com (put it on your whitelist)
don't feel bad - i never notice typing mistakes. i figure people generally understand that this is not a professional resume here - just a for-fun blog.....
(I'm actually quite anal about grammar and spelling - not on blogs and most e-mail - but it drives me nuts when people don't use correct grammar or especially when non-words get thrown into the dictionary because so many people use them anyway...a perfect example of this is "snuck" which is an improper substitute "sneaked"...when I was in school "snuck" was not a word in the dictionary but it is today...)
see, aut, i have quite the opposite view. (which makes people think i was a bad english teacher). i just don't like grammar. i hated it even more after teaching it for 2 years. i think language should be creative. we just come up with things as we experience life! and how else do words get invented anyways? and how else do words become passe? by use. and change of use...and i like freedom in writing and speaking. i like childlikeness and that nature of language. and i really don't appreciate all the rules, though i will admit some are necessary. i'm too tired to make a good arguement on this (its 1:49 am) but ask my andy, i have a good one, and i give it often... soapbox style. (i agree, soapboxes are kinda fun!!) :)
