This Week's Top Stories http://www.independentpub.com Fri 27 Aug 2010 1:39:32 PM Fri 27 Aug 2010 1:39:32 PM As someone who uses words for a living, there are certain things beginning to creep into our society on a regular basis I feel need to be corrected. Slang terms may be acceptable in some cases but many people are starting to allow slang to become normal. I am not saying I am perfect but I at least try to catch errors before they are printed. Perhaps it is because it's my job to double check for spelling and grammar but I find myself editing everything I read from books and magazines to posts by friends on social networking websites. It seems some people don't read what they write before they hit ''share'' but some honestly don't know what they are putting out there for everyone to see is incorrect. Cell phone technology doesn't help, with its autocorrect feature. So many people use cell phones to access social networks these days and they may not notice the autocorrect feature has changed the meaning of what they are trying to say. http://www.independentpub.com/story.asp?artId=-1785974114 Fri 20 Aug 2010 14:40:32
