I hope Britt doesn't read this.

Joi Ito's weblog: "Aoccdrnig to rscheearch at an Elingsh uinervtisy, it deosn't mttaer in waht oredr the ltteers in a wrod are, olny taht the frist and lsat ltteres are at the rghit pcleas. The rset can be a toatl mses and you can sitll raed it wouthit a porbelm. Tihs is bcuseae we do not raed ervey lteter by ilstef, but the wrod as a wlohe."

[Britt is my 13 year old niece who, like many her age, spells weird.]

I didn't have any trouble reading this...how hard was it to type it.

I did'nt find it hard to read either. Weird though. Brit knows how to spell very well, she just picks up weird spelling from computer logo.
