i make a lot of errors and occassionally i leave the mistales as it is cos these days of computer there is no particualr word thats is spelt correctly, one just makes out wat is written, exceptr for some agreement where you have to cross check for double meaning etc,.

I am always making typos and it drives me mad. I have a laptop with 4 keys, including the enter button missing, so it is too easy for a letter to be missed out which is frustrating.
Ic an cope with others typos but not my own, and if I spot them I tend to jump on them like a woman possessed and correct them. hehe :)

I think almost everyone makes mistakes when they're typing; it's just a matter of getting used to the keyboard and going back to read over what you wrote in order to make sure you don't post those mistakes for the world to see. If I'm chatting I won't mind as much if I misspell something, but I get annoyed if I post something- say, on here, or in a professional email- but don't realize it until the message is already sent. Ah well.

i recorded a typing speed of 150WPM on an actual game. cant remember which one, and 157WPM on typing tutor which came with my comp on a disk.
anyway sing firefox i notice most of my mistakes anyway because they are underlined it red.
if i go off in one and start typing really fast, touch typing especially, 30 outta 100 words will be typos hehe

Well me too... I usually make mistakes but I go back and correct the word I spelled wrong. I like everything to be clearly written so there won't be any confusions to what I have written, because it has happened to me once or twice that people get me wrong when I misspell something so that's why I try not to.

That's perfectly normal especially when you're typing very fast! I commit lost of typos and sometimes, I just wonder why it appeared like that? I was thinking about it but it turned out to be mistyped. It is understandable and spell checks do help. Sometimes, though we just have to make something out of it and derive the idea.
There are times when I just can't make anything out of it. I'd just pass and move along.
