Good for you! I try as well to let folks know when I’ve come across mistakes – it’s simply a nice thing to do.

I know what you mean regarding an eye for detail – while most people see the look/feel of a new site the first time they visit, I go over my mental check list to see, okay, was this networking aspect included? Was that title tag modified? etc.etc.etc. Drives me bonkers sometimes.

Doing good deeds and letting folks know when there are issues is a good thing indeed! I try to walk that walk myself whenever I come across blatant mistakes too.

Best wishes,

Yes… It’s sometimes the most obvious that gets missed. After a while it becomes just a sea of words.

I have an eye for detail… (must be all those years of creating my own greeting cards & craft) and mistakes seem to jump out & slap me in the face… sometimes much to the annoyance of others.

If I come across a mistake on a site, whether I know them or not, I will usually try to contact them.

Reminds me of the other night, though not online, I was following someone with an obvious flat tyre. I tried a polite tooting & pointing but she chose to ignore me. Hopefully it got pumped up before it hit the rim.

What really scrapes my eyeballs is seeing ‘your‘ used when “you’re” is the  word that screams out for acceptance.  ARGH!  Oh, and “like” as in, “Like you know, at school like I was over at my locker like when you know a band of maniacal lunch room teachers wearing frosted petunias came like over to me and like shrieked “You didn’t like bring back your like lunch like tray!   Off to the like detention room!”

Like you dig?

Folks awhile back in corporate land would look out for me…and I never forgot it.

Enjoy, Barbara
