Find typos

Hello,

Just found this "find typos" tool and thought I'd share it; http://www.searchspell.com/typo/

I hope you like it

Good one, thanks.

Though the Google Toolbar has an inbuilt spell checker that does the job with just one click of the mouse.

They accomplish different tasks.

The typo tool helps you find common mis-spellings so that you can optimize your web pages for them and attract web visitors who cannot spell.

The Google Toolbar feature, which you just pointed out to me in another thread, spells check data entered in web forms.

Typos

Either one is good. Nothing annoys me more than finding blatant typos anywhere, even in a casual forum. Being a proofreader, it just comes natural, and when I find one of my OWN typos, and I can't edit it, I become very embarrassed and irritable. ops:

Well luckily for us, forums have an edit button

I still use the Toolbar to spell check (although sometimes I forget!).
Im quite a good typer though, so don't seem to make many spelling errors :lol:

I hate typos also, especially those that are made on purpose, and people trying to take advantage of them.

People actually do cash in on typos, I think there are a lot of opportunities to make money off them, however unscrupulous that may be.
