Sometimes it seems that it is a "macho" thing to do...to not care about the grammar and spelling when someone (not you, I'm sure) writes a blog post, email....even a paperback book. The attitude is that if the reader takes affront...well... it is the reader's problem,...
Don’t do this on Facebook…
For several years now, Facebook has been a great source of free traffic for websites. Of course, marketers have taken full...and in some cases, excessive...advantage of this. There has been more and more abuse in recent years, especially by websites that are in...
