Do you bother typing correctly, correcting mistakes, using caps when appropriate, grammar, etc. when posting online (blogs, survey forums, social networking)? I sort of see it as an extension of texting and dont always. If it was a term paper i would definately approach it differently.

I usually do it right, or at least try, but I admit if I'm in a hurry it's not always correct.

Sometimes I will copy and paste a post to my Micro-Sort Word.  Then I'll do a spell check and copy/paste it back to fusion.

I try to do it well, but sometimes I don't care. It all depends if I'm tired or have the time to do it well.  :star:

It depends on what I am typing. If it is important, of course I type correct. If it's chat, i dont type so correctly lol

Yes, I try to correct any grammar mistakes when I am typing on the computer. I don't like when people misspell words and don't use proper punctuation. However, when I text on my phone, then I will use shortened words, like u, luv, 2day, etc.

For me it depends on the situation.  Like you said, if doing a term paper or college online, then it's a no-brainer.  But if your texting or in an informal chat room or blog, then it really doesn't matter.

I do try to type correctly, but there are some things I may do and not worry about using capital letters correctly.

I try to use proper language and spelling whenever I write anything because I feel that it is really, really easy to lose your language skills if you don't use them.  My major problem has always been run on sentences. I once got a job and I think the only reason I was successful with the interviewer was that I was able to write a proper letter. It is a dying art though.
