Technological advances

July 29th, 2009

Technology is awesome and fantastic. It makes everything easier . . . except for all the times it causes more problems.

Rely on the infallibility of technology and it’ll come back to bite you in the arse. NOTHING is infallible – even God makes mistakes sometimes, just look at the Chihuahua.

So turn off Autocorrect and try using your brain as well as your spellchecker. Blind reliance on technology will only make matters worse – as I found out when I sent a client a friendly email about the bad weather.

“Luckily for me I’ve got a pair of wellies with me”.

Guess what folks, “wellies” doesn’t appear in the Word dictionary.

But “willies” does.

Thanks Autocorrect.

Hannah's job is a bizarre mix of creativity and pedantry. As a copy writer and editor, she has the freedom of writing compelling content and the strict self-regulation of the grammar-nazi.
