And will you edit your post if you see a typo after you submit it?
I usually proofread my post especially if I write out something long. If I happen to see a typo after I submit it, I'll edit it.
-
Google proofreads my posts with her little red squiggles!
-
@mrbee: Ditto that, but still sometimes I miss stuff, especially on my phone.
-
i tend to read them after i submit and then have to edit a lot.
-
My computer tells me when I've misspelled something but sometimes I use the wrong word (our instead of out, for example) and I don't notice until it's posted.
-
@mrbee: yeah the red squiggles are easy. It's when I'll type "out" instead of "our" and similar ones that I miss easily.
-
I work as an editor, I can't help it!
-
I'm really bad about pressing submit before I proofread, then will read it and edit it if need be.
-
Sometimes and sometimes I'll edit afterwards. A lot of times I hit submit and then get distracted and not look at it until later in the day though.
-
I do on my computer but I'm usually on my phone and I don't! I know some autocorrects garble my posts.
-
I don't always proofread but I correct my mistakes if I find any.
-
@Leialou: Same!
-
@scg00387: the curse of the autocorrect / predictive text messaging has struck us all at some point!
-
yes, always. not just for spelling and grammar, but also tone.
-
Yeah. I still make spelling and grammar mistakes that I miss and it bugs the crap out of me!
-
on my computer i'm more careful, but typing on the phone or ipad, i think it's all good and then submit and then i see that it autocorrected to a weird word or random group of letters. i don't bother to correct it then.
-
Yes, especially when I'm posting from my phone!
-
I do but I also edit after I post. I love the 3 hour edit window.
