Spelling mistakes!

    Sybren> And what's up with using Google to check for spelling? I have a
    Sybren> dictionary for that, works a lot better!

A couple things:

    1. It's generally faster than reaching for the dictionary.

    2. The hit count for a word and its misspelling gives me some measure of
       how the rest of the online English-speaking world thinks that word is
       spelled.

    3. Some recent words like "podcast" aren't in the now ancient dictionary
       on my shelf.  Other words have gained new meanings since my
       dictionary was published.

Okay, so that's a few things... <wink>
