    Spell check for online use. Go to the Google home page and from there you can add the Google toolbar to your internet explorer. The toolbar has a spell check that works on blog posts, online applications, basically anything that you are doing online it will spell check for you.

    Let's not get into grammar. I've seen several forums degenerate into name calling and otherwise flame wars because a few seem to think that they were grading papers for a high school English class. I definitely don't want that to happen here too. There are reasons for bad grammar. I'm having problems seeing right now, some might not speak English very well some might not even have much education. Anyhow, that's my rant, or maybe more like advice. On the subject of my eye injury, thanks to everyone for their concern. Hopefully when I go back to the eye doctor today the infection will be on the way to being cleared up. As for the suggestion to save my eyes by staying offline for a while, I can see the monitor with my right eye, it's just the keyboard which looks ouy of focus, and that seems better this morning. To Bear, I do understand what you are saying about computer speak, I don't like it either. However we at XMARKS seem to have developed our own version, such as PK, UK or USAK. I think I might have even seen the term BK used a time or two. Maybe we should all have a little more respect for you guys who labor to keep us all kilted and happy.

    Oh Yes, I think I found another reason for typos. I need a new keyboard.

    Honestly, the grammar and spelling on this board is so much better than on most boards on the internet. If you want to see bad, go to the boards for hints for just about any video game.
