Default Spell Checker!

I just recently started using Google's new browser, Chrome,
and noticed that it has a little feature that puts a red underline under any misspelled words. When you click on the post preview, the corrections are made automatically.
It does have some quirks, like putting the emoticons at the end of the post, instead of where the cursor is. So if you have a spelling deficiency like I do, check it out.
Unfortunitly for NJSTEVE, it does not have a grammer correction feature.

Mozilla's Firefox browser also has this awesome feature.

Download Chrome Beta. Much faster and less cluttered than IE7.

A few of mine, used here correctly but commonly misused:

Lose: I hope we don't lose the game.

Loose: The tie-down came loose.

Too: Can I go too?

To: You have to go to school.

Two: I ate the last two brownies.

Supposed: You are supposed to stop at red lights.

Suppose: I suppose this is getting a little off topic.
