The Great Typo Contest still going strong!
In case you missed the blog where I launched this last spring, I set up a contest here called The Great Typo Contest. The rules were simple - if you spot a typo in any of my online stuff (online stuff that's fixable, so message boards and emails don't count. Blogs and web pages are fair game!), you bring it to my attention, and you get one point. At the end of one year's time, whoever has the most points will be getting a prize from me for your efforts to help me sound like less of an idiot in my writings.
Thanks to everyone who's been taking part in this, and a reminder - it's still going! You have until April 4th, 2009, to spot those typos. Currently there are two folks tied for first place, and still plenty of time for someone else to jump in and take the lead. And "jumping" is important, because whoever points it out first gets the point for it, so email fast if you see a flub!
Thanks again, current typo-spotters, and keep up the good work! There's goodies in it for one lucky, diligent soul. So read on, and edit from afar!

D'oh!! Thought I was being all snazzy with the spellchecker to catch such phonetic boo-boos, but forgot that spell check don't catch the all caps words. Good catch! Thanks! Another point for you.
