Spellcheck

Before I go, Is it just me or does it seem like nobody gives a damn about spelling anymore? Spelling has always been my downfall. I'm terrible at it, admittedly. But with so many tools at my disposal it seems really...lazy to not even try to spell stuff right. (Besides that, if I'm the one noticing, you probably have a pretty serious problem).

And you know, social networking or personal blogs or whatever, I know I have to let that stuff go. But business emails? News articles?

What on earth is up with that?

I can't tell you how many online article I read that have grievous spelling and grammatical errors. Does nobody employ an editor anymore? Are things just published the way they are submitted? Does nobody care, to any small degree, how utterly stupid it makes them look to publish...anything with two spelling errors to every paragraph?

Makes me nutso.

Maybe it's just me, but it feels a lot like some sort of twisted devolution.

Maybe we'll just abandon the written word all together.

Maybe we'll all just go back to grunting.

It's hard to say.

Spellcheck.
Use it.
Love it.
