Personally, I try be considerate to readers by checking my spelling and grammar before and after posting when I have time... but I guess it's not all that important when it comes to the online world.

A guy at my work sent a e-mail company wide about our closing from X-mas until the new year.  Said he use spell checker...but, did not use his eyes.  It should have been "Shut Down"  but appeared "Sh*t Down".
