No Room For Error

Facebook allows members to edit photo captions, so why not status updates? Few typos pain me more than ones I commit myself--and then broadcast to my friends, who at times treat me like their human dictionary. (I wouldn't have it any other way.)

Author Kathryn Schulz proposes a similar feature for Twitter, though in a much more serious context. I read about it here on Mediabistro, which read about it on Word Yard, which read about it on Poynter.

This giving credit where credit is due is hard work.
