Human VOIP

I got some good comments about the English in my blog, none of it came from a native English speaker, obviously. I don’t need anyone telling me my English is far from perfect, I can tell by myself I got some typos and grammar mistakes, but, I’m not sure that perfect English is the most important thing when writing a blog. It needs to be reasonable, without too many obvious mistakes and most important it gotta be understandable, without the readers need to reread full sentences. I’m not sure I always qualify for the last one though. At least websitegrader think the readability level of my blog is: "primary / elementary school".

Check spellers do help, but sometimes they cause even more trouble. Sometimes I accept what they offer too quickly and get completely different words without even noticing, to name a few: implantation instead of implementation and except instead of expect.

Anyway, I got a little aid from this article, the comments have some good insights as well.

The article is also available as a PDF.
