Use Google as a spellchecker always at your fingertips

by David Bennett on July 2, 2009

I may be typing a comment in someone’s blog, or adding a tag to something I am bookmarking in Delicious, or any one of many places I may type that doesn’t immediately put a red line under the type to tell me that maybe I am spelling something incorrectly.

In the Google searchbox next to where the URL sits, just type in the word you suspect you may not know how to spell, and bingo, up (or down) comes a list of what you are very probably looking for. You could always hit the word and read more to check, but usually that is not necessary.

Spellchecker always at your fingertips.

I am using Safari as my browser of choice, but Firefox has the same facility. Who knows what IE does – (small dig in passing).
