I before E except after C
Emailing someone about a typo on their website is the electronic version of telling someone their fly is open.
For every person who replies with a word of appreciation, someone else asks me why I was looking at their crotch…. err, website.
As with open zippers, I don’t go looking for them, but when you see one, it’s hard not to notice.
Most don’t reply at all.
If I cared more, I’d start tagging them in del.icio.us with the date that I reported it and periodically check back to see if they ever actually correct them.
However I do not actually care that much.
My policy is that I would want to want to know if (when) I make typos on stuff that I write, therefore I “do unto others”…. assuming I can find a contact email address, which isn’t always easy.
