Correcting misspelled words and grammatical errors one blog at a time.

It's tomorrow, Ev, not tomorow! Sigh. Ev frustrates me sometimes with his spelling. Still I'd give him one kiss if I could ;)

From megnut:

"If you're like me and effected [sic!] by the DSL outage that killed Matt's nameserver and is making it impossible for you to access MetaFilter, you can also be like me and access MetaFilter by its IP address until the DNS issue is resolved: http://209.10.108.201/."

If Meg would replace effected with affected, I think the web would be quite grateful.

Ev made plenty of spelling mistakes in Status.Blogger.Com. I won't even begin to list them, but I forgive him. He's working hard to keep us happy. But still, he should've taken advantage of the new spellchecker feature in Blogger, especially since he was the one who added that feature.

"Weblography.com - Comming Soon."

This kind of spelling error never fails to amuse me :)

From megnut:

"I noticed yesterday that all the permalink "dates" have been using a numeric scheme based on the assumption that the year is 2000, not 2001 (e.g. 20000627). I wonder if I've been opporating [sic!] under that same assumption?"

Uh, "opporating"? [Fixed. Mission accomplished.]

Ok, so I didn't find this misspelling in a weblog (and we're supposed to blog only misspellings found in weblogs, but I was the one who made that rule so what the heck), but this has been bugging me for quite some time now: "Forward by Jeffrey Zeldman". Huh? Isn't it supposed to be "Foreword by Jeffrey Zeldman"?
