Bad Spellers of the World Don't Untie ...they Wave

I have just been watching a very long preview video of Google Wave.......WOW.  So many cool features and potential possibilities.

I know this has very little to do with photography.  However, a few of the coolest features has me wishing I was using wave just to type this Blog post.  Wave could not only allow me to post this entry LIVE to this blog page, my website, my facebook, and to specific contacts that I have selected... did I mention that this would be done live and people could see it being updated as it is being typed.  BUT, my favorite feature is, it would allow for the most powerful spell checker I have EVER seen.  This is what we, or at least I, have been waiting for in a spell checker.  Not only something that checks the correct spelling of a word, but also checks the words in the context of the sentence to make sure that it's the correct word for that part of the sentence. You can have two different words in a sentence that happen to be misspelled the same and it will figure out that you meant two different things.  For example, if you wrote: Icland is an icland.  It would figure out that you were trying to say Iceland is an island.  That just blows my mind.  It's like having someone helping you proof read your work as you type.
No longer will bad spellers of the world untie....we might finally unite.

Technology is awesome,
