I'd be lost with out spell check, rely heavily on Grammar Girl and Google everything. I rarely use my phone (land line) relying on email and Facebook to keep me connected. There are still a few bumps along the information highway.
Auto translate is a little twitchy, any translation matrix is doomed to provide some hilarious results. Direct word for word never works. Too much of language is determined by context.
The big bump is auto fill/auto correct, and I guess I'm not alone. My friend Rauri corrects to ruminator, my cousin Carly to Curly, I've turned mine off on the computer. It sounds like it should work, save time and effort but some how I'm pretty sure the following texts are not what was intended. These were emailed to me by a co worker and provided some true ROFLMAO. You may have already seen these, but they still make me laugh. Every time.

OMG...I'm dying, and Chris is not far behind. Seriously, I could spend hours on this site.... but as for my own phone - autocorrect is off.
ReplyDeleteThese are too funny!! I have autocorrect on my phone and everytime I type a friend's name, "Luna" it autocorrects to "Lunatic". I probably should turn it off before I lose a friend.
ReplyDeleteI can't read these with out laughing and the site has hundreds. If ever you're feeling down.
ReplyDeleteLike I need any help putting my foot in my mouth, mine stays off.
I gotta get me a friend named Luna, I love that one
