Subject: RE: Tech: Google keeps getting smarter and smarter
John: Perhaps I wasn't clear. I am not talking AT ALL in this thread about using the Google search function. I am talking about using Google Chrome as a browser and then typing stuff into a text box, such as I am doing right this second--typing text that will be posted to Mudcat. This is exactly the same thing that everybody does when they post messages to Mudcat, except that they might be using other browsers. It is within this text box--the one that has a "Submit Message" below it--that I am seeing typos being flagged with red or green underline.

I realize some of the same technology that is used to detect and correct typing errors when I type a search argument at Google.com might also be used to detect and correct typing errors when I type text to be posted at Mudcat.org--but before you tell me "there's nothing remarkable about that" please tell me: DOES ANY OTHER BROWSER DO THAT?
