Haha love your idea, and your suggestion. But what I have noticed is getdare itself also has its own spell checker, but that will only come up if a word is spelt wrong not if the word is right and is the wrong word. I know here in Australia spelling, maths and grammar are slowly being eaten into by other so called important subjects, I am amazed at how many 19-25 year olds cannot spell or even use paragraphing because they were not taught it.

This is not just since the use of text messenging or msn, it has been on the decline sice I was at school over 10 years ago. No one really helped me improve my spelling, that is why one of my most visited sites is dictionary.com to make sure I have the right meaning and the right spelling of a word if I am unsure.

I am sure other people are not that lazy to check their words or ask for help if needed when writing. I excuse those that are not English speakers first but if Chloe can write pretty well in English why can't others learn too?

But that is just my take.
