It's a miracle!!!

Last week the computer updated itself and evidently part of the update was a new version of Internet Explorer. It has some sort of whiz bang feature that autocorrects misspellings of common words. As many of you know, I cannot type the word "the" correctly to save my life....but now I can't type it incorrectly even if I want to. t e  h  is my usual spelling but if I type it that way it corrects it as soon as I hit the space bar.
And if I misspell any other word it instantly gets underlined in red so I can correct it. Willis however it thinks is correct for Willys. Not that I ever use Willis.

No more dyslexic typing!! At least for that one word...  Cool Cool Grin

Amazing! Bill has joined the 21st century and we can all understand him now too!  Grin Were you using IE one before the update?  Wink  Grin

My mac doesn't do that, which is fine. I get a red line under misspelled words. So I don't have to worry about it switching Willys to Willis. It does put a red line under Willys though.

You can zoom in with them smart phone thingys.  Wink

I have an iPhone. Sometimes it is really annoying because it changes words and it doesn't make sense why it chooses that particular word.  Angry And I have contractor fingers, so I always type the wrong letter on it too. I will say, it is nice having a good camera and internet. I use it a lot for our line of work.

Wait one or two year and you will be able to get the new glass from Google.
