Check this out: a weblog devoted to cataloguing spelling errors in other weblogs. I’m a spelling Nazi myself (and former County Spelling Bee champion), but I don’t like this concept. Weblogs are personal pages. You don’t criticize somebody’s personal page, period. I’ve been on weblogs where I hate the design or the functionality or whatever, but I’ve kept my mouth shut because that’s what polite people do. If a blogger’s style of writing bothers you, don’t read their stuff. Simple as that. There’s no need to get pedantic about it. (Link courtesy of John, who agrees with me.)
