Read this aloud -

"I cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulacity uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid Aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabridge Uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer inwaht oredr the lttees in a wrod are, the olny iprmoatnt tihng is taht the frist and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Amzanig huh? yaeh and I awlyas thought slpeling was ipmorantt!"

Got that from a friend thats going to uni. I read the first 5 words of it and i was there thinking to myself "shocking spelling but wtf...."

About the only thing the shats me is the typing of sms code (eg 1337, like, WTF ?). Most times i'm able to work around the bad spelling and all that crap.
Yeah http://www.thefreedictionary.com is handy to have but if your like me and always having the screen full of internet crap like ebay, toymods, other forums, google, AltaVista, and the list goes on with downloads etc having a dictionary in book form is a great companion, pity you have to know the basics of the word first to get started on its spelling.
