And that’s always a good thing!

If you’re not yet using Firefox, this is a great time to make the switch. If you’re using a version of Firefox prior to version 2, consider upgrading. Why? Well, there are tons of great features, but the one I’m focusing on today is the in-browser spell checking.

Take a look at the screenshot below:

The familiar red underline shows up when you type a word not in the Firefox dictionary, and a right-click gives you the standard options.

If you write most of your blog posts directly in the browser, like I do, this is a great advantage. I’m not one of those annoying people who insist that a blog should be perfect (it’s informal communication, for pity’s sake!) but it’s nice to avoid those inevitable errors that break the flow. Why distract readers if you don’t have to?
