Does no one proof-read the posts before they go online? There are always a million spelling or grammar errors and frankly I'm blown away that this many always get through. How about a second read through or have someone else do a quick proof-read of your work before posting? OK? OK!

This just isn't the type of website where shaving a minute or two off of the time it takes to go live means anything, so there's just no excuse for the laziness. Even if that were the case, why don't they just fix it afterward (especially since one of us usually points it out).

I admit I don't know what tool is used when writing a blog, so I don't know if errors are easy to spot (like how they're underlined in Firefox). If spelling and grammar checking is not built-in to whatever is being used, though, I always suggest doing a simple copy/paste to check it in MS Word.

If - for some reason - that is too much work, then at the very least they should be reading it back to themselves before hitting that submit button.]]>Sep 24th 2009 1:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
Congrats guys!]]>Sep 22nd 2009 4:25PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
OK, Engadget. I'm a big fan and congratulations are in order. Good job making it three years! At the end of the day I guess I would rather have you as a cousin, even if you are a semi-retarded cousin, than not have you at all. :-)

Gasz, is that better?]]>Sep 22nd 2009 4:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 4:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
And for your information, people bag on Engadget all the time for their opinions. I am not doing anything like that. I am merely pointing out that they need to up their professionalism and edit their postings if they expect to be taken seriously and make it another three years. And my comment about being a "retarded cousin" was supposed to be a humorous way to get that message across. Lighten up and take a fucking chill pill already Mr. NUTZ.]]>Sep 22nd 2009 5:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 5:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
There's the key douche... you're trying too hard, so just quit it.

BTW, glad you like my name!]]>Sep 22nd 2009 5:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
Now piss off and find something better to do with your time, like maybe your usual: sniffing glue or tampons.]]>Sep 22nd 2009 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/
Just as bad as that is the fact that they don't engage their readers whatsoever. I could be wrong, but it appears as if they submit a story, walk away, and never come back to read any comments. Almost every other blog I read has comments from the author mixed in with those from the readers. Of course, that would explain why the grammatical errors never get fixed... the authors don't know because they don't even bother to read when we point them out.]]>Sep 24th 2009 1:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 5:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 5:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadgethd.com/page/1008/

And in the meantime we had Kevin Tofel, Matt Burns and Darren Murph as dedicated EHD writers. With many other throwing in a post or two. ]]>Sep 22nd 2009 6:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 8:29PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 23rd 2009 12:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Sep 22nd 2009 9:56PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/http://www.engadget.com/2009/09/22/happy-3rd-birthday-engadget-hd/Yes, the Mexigun still trolls around here,
and now that I finally got a iPhone 3Gs,
I always listen to the podcasts on the way to work!
