Can You Correctly Spell The 25 Most Commonly Misspelled Words?

BusinessWriting.com has posted a quiz composed of The 25 Most Commonly Misspelled Words. I scored 23 out of 27 (there are two bonus questions for British variant words) or 85% which does not make me happy. I expected 100%, seeing as how I was the Spelling Bee champion for my elementary school, lol.

Here's the quiz, let me know how you score.

Which Twitter Program Is Best?

Once upon a time, when I was heavily involved in using Twitter, I discovered Tweetdeck and was very happy with it. A few months ago I bought a new laptop after the screen on my old one cracked. Since I wasn't doing a lot of tweeting at the time, other than occasionally checking my iPhone Tweetdeck app, I didn't bother adding Tweetdeck to my new laptop.

Now that I have the blog up and running and am trying to use social media like Facebook and Twitter  more often, I've decided to install a Twitter program on my new laptop. But I'm wondering if there is something newer, shinier and better performing than Tweetdeck, or if it's still the best choice?

What do you use, and what do you like about it?

The Beautiful Part Of Writing

"The beautiful part of writing is that you don't have to get it right the first time, unlike, say, a brain surgeon. You can always do it better, find the exact word, the apt phrase, the leaping simile." - Robert Cormier
