Seriously, For The "Spelling" Challenged Here.........

[Robb]

..................go download Mozilla Firefox 2.0+!!

By simply using this browser, you can convince the rest of the world that you are more capable than typing/spelling at a 4th grade level!!

Honestly, wouldn't you like to be able to type at a higher level than you do? Maybe not for the good of those that have to read your posts (although we will thank you), but simply for the satisfaction of typing out a complete statement correctly? Wouldn't you feel a little better about yourself after having typed out a statement spelled correctly, instead of a statement that could be replicated by a chimp

Just go and use Firefox! Outside of it being a million times more secure than I.E., it does this little fancy bit of underlining your misspelled words in red.............and then if you right-click on a misspelled word, it gives you suggestions on properly spelled words that are similar to your misspelled word! Then you just have to click on the proper word, and it inserts it directly where your misspelled word was. It does all the work for you! All you have to do is put in about five seconds of effort!

Is five seconds of effort too much to ask?




I attached an example. I misspelled level as "leval," just to prove how it works:

No "rage" at all on my part. Or did you mean "ragging?" Yea, I may be ragging a little bit.

To be honest, I consider myself a HORRIBLE speller!! But, from what I have seen on the internet, I am slowly upgrading myself to "above average." My wife, on the other hand, is fantastic at spelling. Probably once or twice a week, I shout across the house for her to spell something out for me.

You see though, to me, it isn't a matter of being good at typing, or even spelling. It is a matter of putting a little effort into proofreading what you have written, and seeing if that is how you want to represent yourself before you hit the "SUBMIT" button. I tend to double check myself before I put something in front of the whole world to see.

Another option is to use the Google tool bar.

It has a great spell check!
