Spell check, the single most useful tool on the computer. Many times a person can write a great deal and misspell quite a bit of it, never noticing. It helps to look at the screen, as opposed to the keyboard, while your typing but this can also cause just as many problems, most namely hitting one key while aiming for another, this happens a lot, and a further complication is that of typing quickly, it can cause you to type one letter before another, such as that, teh, paly - all words I commonly misspell due to typing to fast. The obvious solution would be to type slower but such a thing absolutely absurd. We live in a fast-paced world and typing slow is for wussies, and old people. Email is for old people, they stand in awe of it for hours, but I’ll get into that in another article (makes a note of it as he is finally coming up with decent ideas for content). Regardless, to type quickly is important, and it's even more important to type quickly, look at the screen, scream obscenities into a microphone, drink some sort of a caffeinated beverage, and each snack foods all at the same time (it can be done, it's just difficult and takes a lot of skill, such that I have). Regardless, spell check is extremely useful and in many cases can teach you to spell certain words you would normally misspell no matter how hard you try, such as extreme and alcohol, occasionally in the same sentence. But the issue arises of how dependant are we upon spell check? I can personally say that any time I type out some sort of text onto a computer I never capitalize my i's, except when I really, really try, and when I do it on purpose to show emphasis or am otherwise just too lazy to press the shift key and THEN the letter I...it's just so hard, you have to move your finger all the way back to the shift key, I mean it's like an inch away! That's so far!!!....
