The Inconvenient Truth about a Web 2.0 World

Web 2.0 is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it makes it possible for everyone to voice their opinion on a subject, to get themselves "published." On the other hand, it makes it possible for everyone to get "published." This constant influx of printed media (of which I am now also part) is sure to be full of errors, due to the sheer size of it. That's where I come in. Now, I don't mind the average Joe's blog or comment having typos. No, my beef is with the professionals, who should know better. It is my aim to denounce these errors here, to try and turn the tide of sloppy writing through exposure. This is why I ask the question: Don't they check these things?
